Forward and backward compatibility between Windchill 11.0 M010 and Workgroup Manager CPS within the same Maintenance Release

$
0
0

Prior to Windchill 11.0: Required using the same Windchill Workgroup Manager CPS on both the server and client machines.

 

Windchill 11.0 M010 Onwards:

You can use different CPS levels on the Windchill server and client machines within the same maintenance release.

Workgroup Manager will now check version compatibility at the Windchill maintenance version level; not at the CPS level.

Windchill Workgroup Manager is no longer installed from the Windchill server.

A company now has the flexibility to have their end users at desired CPS levels and still connect to a single Windchill server.

 

For example, the following scenario is supported.

A company has Windchill 11.0 M010 CPS05 server and user ‘A’ can connect to the Windchill server with Windchill Workgroup Manager 11.0 M010 CPS03 and user ‘B’ can connect to the same server with Windchill Workgroup Manager 11.0 M010 CPS07.

 

Illustrated below is the supported configuration.

How to handle the same model with different colors or materials in Windchill?

 

I have a creo model, say my_screw.asm in Windchill. And I need to manufacture a blue screw and red screw that has two different part numbers.

How do we handle such use cases using windchill? Or another similar use case could be change in material.. where the model from a design perspective is one, but from a manufacturing point of view there are two or more different parts.

 

Can somebody recommend a way to handle?

Hi All,

 

I've set up the office worker on a separate server using the Adobe Experience Manager. The Worker Daemon is started from a CMD Window and not set as a service.

While publishing the doc2pv.exe application crashes.

 

Details: Windchill 10.2

            Creo View Adapters 3.0

            Adobe Experience Manager 6

 

The application crashes while publishing an Excel Doc (see attachment) . For Word the job fails directly with the following error:

Automated Regression Testing

Hello,

 

I'm new to both Windchill and software testing.  My team is looking to automate our regression testing for our Windchill point releases.  I'm currently researching tools to use, and I'm leaning towards Selenium, but I wanted to reach out to the Windchill community before making a final decision.  If you've automated regression testing, what tools did you use?  What were their pros and cons?

Hi everyone,

 

I'm going to be in the process of updating the internal IP,external IP(For Webserver), and Domain for our Windchill environment. I need to know the best method to go about this since this is all I'm changing.

 

How to make changes reflect IIS\APACHE so I can host on the internet?

How to make changes for other dependencies so I don't run into any major issues?

 

Thanks!

How to share EPDM product data with outside partners?

$
0
0

I am trying to understand the best practices for sharing product data within WC with companies/partners/suppliers/co-developers outside our company. At present, the only method I can find is to 'pack' the some or all of product data (meta data, assembly & parts, drawings, and all other relevant data) and send it to the recipient. And when there is an update to the data that has been shared, then do this all over again.

On the recipient's side, they have to 'unpack' the data and load it into their system. We have a few scenarios here:
1. The recipient has WC+Creo - they may be able to take the data 'as is' with very little massaging to get into their system.

2. The recipient has PDM/PLM/CAD from another vendor - they have to find a way to "import" the data into their system, and this may lead to data being neither imported into their PLM system or their CAD system.
3. The recipient has only CAD system - they have to grab the CAD data out of the 'pack' and use it, perhaps after translating it into their native CAD system, if they arent using Creo.

And all of them have to this over again the moment something changes at the sending end to either the metadata or the CAD data.

 

I would like to know if the user community has evolved a set of best practices for each scenario. I would appreciate if people can share their thoughts on how they would deal with this situation in their company.

Persisting Alias Attribute

Hi all,

I have an alias attribute on a WTPart and it is derived from related object through a "Configurable Describe link".

 

When I share this WTPart to project, the alias attribute on the WTPart (looking from Project) is empty -- The reason is the alias attribute is not persisted.

 

The need here is to show the alias attribute without sharing the related object to Project.

 

How to make this work? How to make alias attribute persistable?

 

Thanks & Regards

Managing Creo Material Files (.mtl) in Windchill

Hi Everyone,
Could anyone please share with me their Windchill configuration for managing Creo material files (.mtl)?  I am interested in EPMDocument soft types and/or IBAs.  Additionally if you are managing a WTDocument that contains more information about the .mtl file I would like to know how you are relating the two objects and what is the process for changing them.  Thanks for all your input.

Has anyone seen this error message when using Solidworks WGM to save SW files into PDMLink 10.2?

$

We've been using Solidworks WGM for several years to manage our SW files alongside Our Creo files - within the last month we are encountering situation where SW files are checked out of PDMLink (10.2), modified, saved in workspace, checked in and modifications disappear - model reverts back to first save made.  Drafter has opened models up multiple times worked on them and saved with no problem, then randomly this happens and all work he thought was saved is gone.  Has anyone else seen this, or had this happen?

 

 

 

 

 

"A larger list of the errors.   One thing I noticed is both times after the “error” occured the models are listed as out of SYNC.  Yet nothing was done that should have caused them to become out of sync."

 

I'm seeing two copies of same object in different versions and states?

The object was revised from a lifecycle and the version has successfully changed but when i do a search of the object i see 2 different copies of this object in the search.

The versions are visible to only some groups and the user wants to understand why it behaves so.

The End state of the initial life cycle is Archived;has this got anything to do with the behaviour.

When searching for a single piece of text in the "Description" section of a Change Request via the Keyword search in Windchill 10.2, the Change Request is not found. Is that expected behavior?

 

If I search for a single piece of text in the "Name" of a Change Request via the Keyword search in Windchill 10.2, the Change Request IS found.
