Locking objects in Windchill 10 promotion request workflow template

$
0
0

Hello,

 

I am trying to modify our promotion request template which was copied from the OOTB windchill one to lock objects when they are raised up for promotion,a dn then unlocked after they are approved by config management approvers. I have a call into PTC tech support but they are dragging their feet as usual getting back to me. Does anyone have insight into how this can be done. I know that it is some type of robot, and from reading the help, it says you must use tranistion robots in conjuction with the locks, but I am just having trouble putting it all together. The default template contains locks, and unlocks already but not in the places I need them. I tried to copy them and put in line, but something just is not working right. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you in advance for your assistance,

I try to load the CONTENTMETADATA of WTDocument using Windchill Bulk Migrator 4 siurce and target system is WC 10.2 M020.

When I executed PreloadValidation command using UI for  CONTENTMETADATA

windchill com.ptc.windchill.migration.wbm.preloadvalidator.ui.PreLoadValidationManager

status of staged objects in table CONTENTMETADATAWBMSTATUS is succesfull

next step i executed

windchill com.ptc.windchill.migration.wbm.DataLoadController -l CONTENTMETADATA WTDocument

 

result:

Query to be run - SELECT staging.sequencenumber AS SEQUENCENUMBER ,staging.type AS CLASS FROM CONTENTMETADATA staging, CONTENTMETADATAWBMStatus st WHERE staging.migrated =0 AND staging.sequencenumber = st.sequencenumber AND st.POSTVERIFICATIONSTATUS IS NULL AND st.loadstatus = 'STARTED'

2015-03-21 20:01:17,531 INFO [pool-1-thread-1] com.ptc.windchill.migration.wbm.util.ReconcilationHelper$ReconcilationTask - There is no data mismatch to be reconciled for object type CONTENTMETADATA

2015-03-21 20:01:17,531 DEBUG [pool-1-thread-1] com.ptc.windchill.migration.wbm.util.ReconcilationHelper$ReconcilationTask

when I saw in db Table  CONTENTMETADATAWBMStatus  st.loadstatus =  'SUCCESS'

witch command i must execute to change  st.loadstatus =  'SUCCESS'  on  st.loadstatus = 'STARTED'.

I can execute SQL UPDATE ))), but I think that is not correct and I shoud exec some Bulk migrator command witch doesn't documented(((.

 

 

May be sombody can post sequence of nesasary step to migrate content of WTDocument from  WC 10.2 to  WC 10.2  using Bulk Migrator 4 tool?

Restore Part Autonumbering

$

I am trying to enable autonumbering in a library context.  Our entire site has autonumbering disabled as the result of some old customizations and a rehost.  I've got an autonumbering rule that works within the context if the Site level OIR is disabled, but when both the Site and Context rules are enabled, I get an Oracle error as follows:

 

ORA-01400: cannot insert null into ("PDMLINKY4"."WTPARTMASTER"."WTPARTNUMBER")

 

I'm not much of a programmer and cutting and pasting tags is a pretty random approach for this kind of work, so I'm wondering if anyone has a rule they could share that would fit into the OIR scheme in such a way that it could be enabled at a context level and override a site level part numbering rule. 

 

Thanks in advance.

preserve the state by using send to PDM

Hello, 

 

Is it possibly to preserve the Object state by using send to PDM?

After sending an object from ProjectLink to PDMLink the state of ProjectLink should be included. 

 

Is it possible to control the "Send to PDM" action via ACL?

 

THX and Greetings,

 

Thomas

Opinion of the integration PDMLink and Creo

$
0

I love both tools PDMLink and Creo. The basic interface works. But by now I would expect some real new features from PTC. I still can't belief why these two major programs of PTC can't get a better and deeper interface. The following examples show my considerations:

 

 

Homogeneous CAD-Templates

This includes that if a new CAD-Document is being created in Creo by the File->New Dialog, all the attributes are automatically being pulled from PDM. So the Material, the values of enumerations etc. are being managed in one single system.

This will also address the idea

Having a single "Material" Business Object in Windchill

 

 

Revising

If an engineer revises the CAD-Document there is no help to collect the Drawing or the WTPart. Instead of the Creo Dialog it should show the PDMLink collector dialog. Otherwise the user needs to revise the WTPart by itself.

Also it should be possible to revise CAD-Documents only if the user connects it directly to a change task. Otherwise he needs to do it before or afterwards. The dialog should show all the open change tasks like on the user homepage.

Revise released objects only with a connected Change Notice

 

 

Cabling or Piping

It should be possible to transfer the length to the BOM insted only the quantity "each". Most smaller companies don't have a WTPart for each cable. They have a single WTPart for the complete cable reel and will cut them for each length by theme self.

 

....

 

 

I haven't yeat created a new idea because there are already many around. What are your thought's about that? Are you happy with the current compilation?

Since Creo and PDMLink are the "Main Products" of PTC, I would really expect more and a further development of these two products.

For me, the development of these two products are still far away from my expectations. Since three years I can't really tell, what new features are being showed. I still belief the development is being done by two different teams which don't talk with each other...

 

 

Thanks

Using DefaultObjectFormProcessor we need to provide Javascript prompt (Yes/No)

Using DefaultObjectFormProcessor we have defined an action when user clicks menu/command. Based on status of EPMDocument we need to add hook/catch before the action method gets executed. Provide Javascript prompt (Yes/No).  I need to invoke JAVASCRIPT action in preProcess() method. Based on Yes/No input the next Process method gets called or abort.

Trying to tweak existing and create a new configuration in <WT_HOME>/codebase/com/ptc/core/htmlcomp/collection/CollectionComponentConfig.xml

So that JSTable can specify what config to load to display dependency or not.

However, unable to make changes in this file effective. Is there loader that needs to load these preferences in DB? I did find a loader file but it didn't do anything

Switch off checkout and checkin dialogbox for wtdocument within Windchill preference manager instead of Desktop Integration

$

Customer don't want the checkin/checkout dialogbox when he open a wtdoc document.

Current solution is: set Preference within the DesktopIntegration (DI) configuration.

Most of his users don't use the DI, so they are not able to switch off this behavior.

 

Suggestion to PTC: implement this setting within Windchill preference Manager.

Hello,

I had to edit part information and need to check it back in. However, whenever I got to check the part in, I get an error stating "The SAP Attributes cannot be modified since the production part is already published". The part is in prototype state in Windchill and SAP.

 

I appreciate any input. Thank you.
