Syntax for Change Task Multiple Participants Selection xconfmanager

Question

Dear All

Looking for some advice on xconfmanager syntax

I am attempting to customise the participant list table as per the link below, I have added a Sub type to the Change task

The example in the support is

If the internal name for my new task is com.fortvale.DEALI assumed that to add the property the syntax should be

xconfmanager --add <Property name="wt.change2.changetask.MultipleParticipantsSelection" overridable="true" targetFile="codebase/wt.properties" value="com.fortvale.DEAL "/>

When run this command the error I get is "The syntax of the command is incorrect."

Could you please advise what the correct syntax

Searching in the wt.properties file I can not find an entry for the property "wt.change2.changetask.MultipleParticipantsSelection", do I need to add this property first.

I am on Windchill 11.2.1.4

Hi David,

Before you add another value check to see if one already exists using -d (describe). Issue this command in a Windchill shell

xconfmanager -d wt.change2.changetask.MultipleParticipantsSelection

If none already exists then set an initial value using -s (set) and -t (target)

xconfmanager -s wt.change2.changetask.MultipleParticipantsSelection=com.fortvale.DEAL -t codebase/wt.properties

then force propagation

xconfmanager -pf
