Hi All,

 

I'm in middle of upgrade from Windchill 10.1 M030 to 10.2 M020. Getting a issue while running upgrade manager in target

server in the Standalone migrator task.

 

Following is the error which I'm getting

 

Error occurred when executing the task of Populate the fields FullName, Last and Email in the WTUser table.
Error is

I found a similar issue in ptc knowledgebase at document CS59225 and also tried those solutions. But this exception is coming for every user. Already I have disable

three users so far. That document is talking about disconnected users in ldap. I got that issue while running my WinDU but later I fixed that and

completed my WinDU task without any failed tasks or problems.

 

Source system is using Active directory server. Will that be a root cause of this issue.? How should I proceed now. Please advice

Hi

 

Is it possible to move items around (mass move) within a project?

 

Basically I have a project with about 50 folders, within each folder are wtparts, models and drawings. I need to move all content of the 50 folders into one folder within the project. Is this possible? The folder update script does not recognize the project name as a context

 

 

Cheers for any help

Enforce User's to check out entire family table when intending to modify.

One challenge in our Windchill environment is that we have user's checking in iterations of a generic or a generic/instance without iterating all other instances at the same time.  We want all instances to be iterated when any change to a family table occurs.  (one reason is mitigation on marked as modified but untouched issues notorious with family tables).  How are other companies attacking this problem?  I see one solution as a config option that only shows the "entire family table" options as shown in picture below.  Maybe this is possible?  Or maybe there is another alternative?

How do I quickly get contents of a CN into a workspace?

I have a Change Notice (CN) with many parts attached to it that require modifications. How do I quickly get these parts into my workspace?

 

My current process is to print the full list of parts attached to the CN and then sequentially search for each item and individually add it to my workspace. This is very time consuming so is there a way to bring an CN (content of) straight into a workspace?

 

The way I see it, all the parts are already collected and attached to the CN so this should be a very simple task

Apache Authentication to LDAP??

I'm very familiar with the standard LDAP integration into AD where the entire user exists in Active Directory; however, I need to know how to store all users and information in WindchillDS but still have Apache authenticate passwords in AD. The users in WindchillDS have the exact same username as the users in AD.

I've seen this done before but I'm not familiar with the actual process to do it.

Thanks!

Pro/Intralink 10.2 issues with sync & refresh?

July 14, 2015, 7:26 am

I hope this the correct forum for this issue.

I have moved items from one context to other context in Commonspace.  The items show up in the correct folder within Commonspace but when I open up the Workspace that I am currently using the items are listed with correct folder location but NOT the correct context.  No matter how many times I refresh, sync, clear the server cache and open/close the sessions, they do not up date to the new context.  Short of deleting the workspace and starting new, what gives?

Has anyone else had this issue?  Has anyone found a magic button sequence to sync the items?

Windchill Prediction question: Prediction not converting NPRD failure rates

July 14, 2015, 12:58 pm

I have a Windchill Prediction where I am using reliability data from the NPRD 2011 Parts library. It does not appear to be converting the failure rate based on what environment I specify for the overall prediction.


For example. I am using NPRD-22114, which is a Power Amplifier with a failure rate of 13.991493. The environment for this particular part is N- NAVAL.

 

The prediction I am doing is for a ground benign environment (GB, GC). The prediction does not convert the failure rate, it is still using the 13.99 value in the overall prediction. Temperature doesn't seem to have an effect, either.

 

Am I doing something wrong? Is there a way to get the conversion factor done automatically or do I have to add an Mult FR for each part?

WCH and variable dimmension in standard part

July 13, 2015, 11:22 pm

Hello all,

 

l have a longtime problem, that has to be solve.

 

Description:

- inside Winchill can be each part only ONCE

- l have a induction senzor, that is used many times in many project

- it has a "variable" datum plane dimmension. This is a constrain datum plane.

 

Problem:

- 1st project (used) dimmension = 10mm

- 2nd project (used) dimmension = 25mm

 

Question:

- how to make it variable accross whole system and keep only ONE source part?

 

My idaes to comment:

1) family table ---> lots of instance ---> looks unsuitable (novice solution)

2) many datum planes ---> lots of datum planes---> looks unsuitable (novice solution)

3) simplify representation + many datum planes ---> lots of simply rep and datum planes---> looks unsuitable

4) flexible dimmension---> l like these idea to datum plane flexible feater

5) Have no other idea. Will be happy if you could share your expiriences.

 

See picture belowe.

WCH part numbering --- "semi-autonumbering"

Hallo all,

 

many people on this forum gave me inspiration to develop better part numbering in our company. Have a new idea hot to make semi-autonumbering. This technique is suitable for manufactured parts. For a buying/ordered parts will discusse later.

l will be glad to hear any critique, note that l see the problem mainly from CAD user/engineer point of view.

Please see picture below.

 

numbering.jpg

Company workspaces:

workspaces.JPG

Workspaces naming convention includes the first part of product number.

It consits of two main part with a "-" as a separator ---> product number - short logical description ---> example> 11010-CWT (in our company everyone knows what CWT means)


My imagine about function:

- l´m working on 11010-CTW project

- set workspace to this project

- create a new part

- new part will be autonumbered like following:

    - because my active workspace is 11010-CTW so WCH will extract "11010" automaticly from workspace name

    - because autonumbering is ON WCH will create a number after a dash (this number is filtered in part relations to drawing number)


What l expect:

- WCH has full control of NUMBER and FILE NAME ---> no more has to solve renaming parts/drawing from the duplicity reason ("part is not unique").

- drawing number is include in file name and extract with relation ---> each drawing number is unique

 

Reasons why l choose this:

- keep it simply

- keep some logical file naming (year and proct number in this year is anough for a rough orientation)

- make clear difference between projects

 

How to continue?

- what function shall i used for workspace name filter (11010) --- need to show some direction (don´t like a blind exploring)

 

---------------

l like your comments like: "What happen if ...?"

If you see some mistake point it please.

Thanks in any advice, commets, tips or tricks

Document Management Integrations - Anyone Considering Office365?

December 9, 2014, 1:31 pm

PTC recieves a fair amount of questions about providing an integration to Office365 lately. I'm curious if there's folks out there using Office365 now and what type of connectivity you'd like to have with Windchill?

 

To me, the main difference is the option to use the Microsoft Office Web Applications instead of the locally installed Office applications and the content has a high probability of residing in the O365 cloud, OneDrive or an on-premise SharePoint implementation. The Office Web Apps are only supported on SharePoint and cannot be directly integrated into a non-SharePoint solution.

 

It seems like a "Send to Windchill" option would be nice to have, but I'm curious if there are any other use cases or needs people might have?

Need to write a service listener which could listen to external folder changes

Hi All,

 

I need to write a service listener which could listens to any change, either creation or modification of an object, which takes place on an external folder (OS folder). For example, I have a folder on the server (same on windchill) D:\input. If somebody creates an xml with WTPart name,number etx attribute, Windchill should listen to the new creation and creates a WTPart in Windchill. Similarly, even if someone modifies a file under D:\input, it shall trigger a request to create a WTPart. I'll think of the validation later, but I'm not aware of the events which I need to check for and how to read data on that.

 

Please help.

 

thanks,

Using import spreadsheet for Reference document

July 16, 2015, 7:31 am

Hi

 

We have started using Windchill & WT parts to manage all the information of our products. We started to store pdf versions of our drawing (for quick reference) in WT parts, but having to do the process for multiple items can take lots of time (go to WT part, checkout part, Create new Reference document, add pdf to reference document, checkin everything, rince & repeate...)

 

I recently learned about the Import from spreadsheet in Windchill and was able to create a simple tool to let a user bulk load multiple WTpart. I was wondering if it was possible to import spreadsheets to do the following tasks:

 

-Create a Reference Document part

-Add a pdf to the Reference Document (if could be defined with a path)

-Add this new Reference Document to a WTpart (of the same number)

 

Is this too much for the Import from spreadsheet function? If it is possible, what would be the required attributes in the Excell spreadsheet? If it is not possible, are there any way to manage documentation in a more effective way?

 

We are using Windchill 10.2

 

Thank you
