Dear Team,

We are using Auto Associate option to create WTPart while doing checkin of CAD documents.
Now, for some numbering scheme - Suppose the CAD number included “Dummy” then for that CAD document - We don’t want to create WTPart in Windchill.
We are still following the same approach - WTPart creation using Auto Associate option.
How can we achieve this scenario?

Hi @AK_9890180

If you do not want to use too much customizations you can use Part Structure Override Attribute Name preference

also check the Knowladge Base CS268136 - Article

You just determinate a boolean parameter in an creo on a model or on a assembly structure parameter and set the windchill preference..

The model attribute drives if the WTPart can be created during an autoasociate operation

and the assembly structure attribute drives if the wtpart can be added to the structure.

Hi @AK_9890180 ,

Yes, this is doable.
You need to customize the implementation of the AutoAssociatePartFinderCreator interface according to your business logic.
Please refer to the KB article below for more information.
