Hi Danilo,

If the information needs to be present in Windchill only then you can use Alias Attribute, as mentioned in below case.

But since you want it inside Word, using DTI, you can create IBA on the WTDocument and from 'promotion Request' workflow, update the value.

Then using below case, map those IBA into your Microsoft Word Document.

Thank you for your answer Kaushik!

I am not clear about the part you said to update the IBA from the promotion request workflow. Do you mean, for example, using a robot in the promotion request approval workflow to change the value of the WTDocument attribute? How can I do that?

Thank you very much!

Yes, from workflow expression robot change/update the IBA value.
