Problem:Windchill ADU licenses reset at 00:00 GMT. For customers outside GMT, this reset lands inside the local working day. Melbourne customer (GMT+10/+11) experiences the reset at 10-11 AM local, users arriving at 8-9 AM cannot log in when the pool is exhausted and must wait 1-2 hours.Proposed Solution:Define the ADU 24-hour window using the connected Windchill server's timezone, not GMT.Why:The PTC PLM Licensing Basis document (Oct 2024) already defines Windchill Platform Structures ADU, ThingWorx Navigate ADU, and Daily Login basis as using the connected server's timezone. The product behavior should match the contractual definition.

Many moving pieces in the Creo Parametric Automation Space…Automation of CAD designs and documentation is becoming a VERY HOT subject.  But there is a right and wrong way to do this.  Best advice - always focus on the data. How does it come in? What purpose does it serve? Where does it need to go? What happens when it gets there?  etc…   These are core to good automation with Creo Parametric - and control of that data and flow through the environment is the key to acceleration.  We have been doing this a long time, and have built our tools around this core concept of “data flow” to leverage what Creo Parametric does well, and overcome limitations with the automation of data and process to leverage it.So a few updates regarding some updates and new things at Simplified Logic, Inc.Creo Parametric Tools Update (Creo 8-12 officially supported)Nitro-CELL - Creo Automation / Excel Interface Nitro-BOM - Creo Bill of Materials / Excel Interface  Nitro-PROGRAM  - Graphical Pro/PROGRAM Editor CR

Each user can decide at any time which to display from those installed.   This example has only one language installed in addition to English – French. Install         Every Windchill file that are used to display English words now has an additional similar file with the language (fr for French in this example).       Because these exist, each user can select their desired language (of those installed) at any time.   Default English:     Each user has this choice (list will include those language(s) which have been installed). Does not affect any other user. By moving English back to the top, it will revert to English at any time.             A

I don't know if this is the right way, but since this group is growing, maybe we could work on this document to insert useful resource for reporting.   I leave the document open, so everyone can add other useful things.   Maybe you can vote up also these three ideas:   Possibility to load SQL statements in Query Builder Report in Windchill PDMLink   Report: PTC have to share what TS do about it with their customer   Set the query limit only for Reports in Windchill PDMLink       As you can read on this discussion, Albert Anderson gave us a link about Windchill UML Model Documentation - English   Another useful document about query builder from Albert Anderson Query Builder for Live Project Status Reports (NPI, Large Engineering Change, etc.)   Another article about UML from TS https://support.ptc.com/appserver/cs/view/case_solution.jsp?n=CS188216&lang=en&source=community   I think it could be helpful also to catalogue repor
