I am currently testing Windchill 10.1 and getting ready for implementation. I wanted to know which browser I should use to work best with Windchill 10.1 and Java.
I use Chrome for everything but I was not sure if IE or Firefox had any advantage with Java running smoother.

Issue: Currently the number of items that can be added to the Windchill Clipboard is 250. The request is to change the value to at least 1000.
This value can be change by executing xconfmanager -s wt.clipboard.limit =1000 -t codebase/wt.properties -p" in a Windchill shell.
Since this would be a category for site wide change, affecting many.
Question: does changing this limit size for buffer affect performance, in any way? Pros & Cons for consideration?

Hi all,
I was reading the documentation on Publish Rules in the Visualization services guide.
I have few questions.,
1. Looks like the publish rules are only for EPMDocuments, is this true?
Regarding the trigger for publishing. the documentation says.,
There are five values that will trigger Publish Rules processing:
• <publish on=”checkin”/> — the trigger for Publish Rules evaluation is a
publish job for an EPMDocument resulting from a check-in.
• <publish on=”create-representation”/> — the trigger for Publish Rules
evaluation is a publish job for a Create Representation action (via the New
Representation wizard) executed from an EPMDocument (or its ownerassociated
WTPart) from the Representations/Annotations table.
• <publish on=”schedule”/> — the trigger for Publish Rules evaluation is a
publish job for an EPMDocument resulting from a job submitted using the
WVS Job Scheduler.
• <publish on=”unknown-source”/> — the trigger for Publish Rules
evaluation is a publish job resulting from any other event, such as from a
manual republish, republish on change, workflow initiated (doPublish),
etc.
• <publish on=”manual-post”/> — specifies that a matching EPMDocument
can have manual post-publishing
Is there any trigger for Publish on "PDM Checkout"? Because OOTB ,when the carry forward is turned off, it also disables publishing when "PDMCheckout".
I have a related post here...
publish.copyrepresentationsforward
Any suggestions on how to handle this requirement? (Customization is the last option for me).
Thanks

Hi Folks,
today I would like to start a short discussion about Family Table models (standard parts) used in Windchill.
What is your experience? Do you use Family Table models for standard parts in Windchill? ... or do you use only separated objects (one model per one material number)?
I do not want to speak about 5 instances in Generic models - I mean >> from 200 to 500 instances per one Generic part - For example Screw with Hexagon head.
How to manage this huge Generic model and how to add new instance, set state for new object and update existing parts in different workspaces.
I waiting for your positive or negative answers.
Thanks for your comments and ideas.
Best Regards,
Vladimir
Hello,
Does any one know how to terminate windchill workflow using API
Hello Everyone,
I have test.war file, wanted to be deploy in windchill. how i can achieve this ??
I puted my test.war file in tomcat\webapps folder and restart the windchill but not working.
Please find the attached file for the detailed issue in the MBOM creation for the BUY Part.
Requirement: In the below EBOM structure consider that C is purchased from the Supplier, so while creating MBOM "C" will be added as an End Item (without adding the child components D & E)
Issue: MBOM visualization doesn't show "C"
Any suggestions would be helpful.
Thanks in advance.
Hello,
I am working to fix some data integrity issues we have after migrating from Agile to Windchill.
I need to change the Revisions for some iterations, but I cannot use the ChangeRevisionLabelUtility.
I was able to update on the "WTPart" table the "versionIdA2versionInfo", "versionSortIdA2versionInfo", "iterationIdA2iterationInfo" columns, on the "ControlBranch" table the
"versionId" column.
This works fine, the RevisionLabelCleanser shows no issues, however I have the "Revise" action available only on the version 3X.2 (was D.2 before the SQL change).
This means that something is wrong on my query.
This is what I know so far.
ControlBranch CB, WTPart P, WTPartMaster M:
CB.idA3B5=M.idA2A2
CB.idA3C5='0'
P.idA3masterReference=M.idA2A2
For example, this is what I used to change the version from D.2 to 3X.2:
update ControlBranch set versionId='A', idA3C5='720510629' where idA2A2 in (select CB.idA2A2 from WTPart P, WTPartMaster M, ControlBranch CB where CB.idA3B5=M.idA2A2 and CB.idA3C5='0' and P.idA3masterReference=M.idA2A2 and P.versionIdA2versionInfo='D' and P.iterationIdA2iterationInfo='2' and M.WTPartNumber='SSG95512')
update WTPart set versionIdA2versionInfo='3X', versionSortIdA2versionInfo='0000023', iterationIdA2iterationInfo='2' where idA2A2 in (select P.idA2A2 from WTPart P, WTPartMaster M where P.idA3masterReference=M.idA2A2 and P.versionIdA2versionInfo='D' and P.iterationIdA2iterationInfo='2' and M.WTPartNumber='SSG95512');
What am I missing here?
Thanks
We have configured a sub type of reference document and would like to remove some of the default tabs for this type. The tabs we want to remove are Details, Structure, Content, Changes, and History. We have done this previously but the tab we removed was applied to all types. In this case, it is only for the sub type. Is it possible to do this?

I tried searching but couldn't find what I was looking for. I have written a report and want to only give access to an individual, management, and not an area, ie. Change, Library, Project, etc. Can this be done? And if so, how? Is this something that I would need Cognos for? I'm currently on Windchill 10.2 m030.

Kindly help me out.

As Solidworks needs to convert files to the new file format after a major version upgrade to ensure performance and stability we thought about the need to have an “Update Worker” to convert at least the catalog parts to a new Solidworks version.
We thought about a queued processing with multiple workers just bringing up the files in Solidworks, save to UWGM Workspace and check-in with admin permissions including a comment that there should be no change to the geometry.
Has anybody done something similar already?
How to ensure to touch a file only once if it is used in multiple assemblies and added to the queue as a standalone part as well?
Any help would be appreciated,
Stephan
Hi,
I'm trying to install Windchill 10.2 M030 using the PSI, configured to created the Database schema in an existing Oracle 12c R2 SE2 database software only installation instance.
I had keyed in correct values of the Oracle 12c Home user password as well during the configuration steps in PSI for installation. But the PSI aborts the Installation pre maturedly during the step of Creating Oracle configurations and the installation fails. The OCU logs that the installation failure message prompting to isn't clear to trouble shoot.
Had some one faced any similar issue? Below is the snapshot of the error screen when the PSI aborts. Attaching the logs pointed in the error screen as well.
Appreciate any help that would assist me overcoming this issue. Thanks in advance!
Hi!
After updating from Windchill PDMLink 10.2 M020 to 10.2 M030 we have issues concerning the publisher.
The goal is to open Creo View with the default representation of a specific EPMDocument.
This is the direct link we usually used:
This does not work for standard users (non admins) anymore. The HTML output is:
Data marked not to be published
No publishing will take place
If an admin opens the URL, it works and Creo View is being loaded with the correct representation.
After reading in the PTC Windchill Visualization Services Guide, I checked the following Windchill Visualization Service Properties:
webpage.allowpublish.designcontext
webpage.allowpublish.epmdocument
webpage.allowpublish.wtpart
webpage.allowpublish.wtdocument
webpage.allowpublish.wtpartalternaterep
The description says:
Default Value: True
Synopsis: Allows publishing from the user interface by object type.
Description: Provides the ability for a user to publish from the user Interface on a type basis. If set to True, all users can publish the specified type from the user interface; if set to False, no users can publish the type from the user interface. If set to Admin, only administrators (system, project, or product administrators) can publish from the user interface. These Settings affect only the UI, and not the ability to publish via listener (such as checkin) or a schedule job; but being in the prohibition list prohibits such actions.
They are all set to "TRUE" but the behaviour is like they were set to "ADMIN".
Can anyone confirm this behaviour in 10.2 M030 and has a solution?
Or is there any other option I need to check?
Thanks!
David
I want to automate a report so that when it is run by the user, it will automatically calculate the date to use. Think of Change Notices and the need for a report to generate the results of Resolved CNs based off of the system date minus 30 days or even quarterly. This should be something that one should be able to do in the criteria section. If it can be done I haven't found it yet. The ultimate goal is to be able to set up a data monitor for management that runs on different times to give them different results automatically. Does anyone know how to do this or if it can be done?
