Force Workflow Comment on Approve Vote

We have so many exciting workflow email threads lately, I would like to throw this one out there as well...

This is a very valid use case and asked many times in Alcon. I hope somebody has figured this out already.

We would like to our users to put comments when they are revising (for example). When they select other vote Approve in the below screen shot, it should just let it go as is and completes the task. So the criteria is ..


1)      Check for the Voting option (Revise_CR)

2)      Look at the Comment Attribute and force it to be filled if empty

Run IE task trough API with current logged user

Hello,

 

I'm trying to run an IE task trough a java method. But Windchill ran the task as WCadmin .

The task run fine but it retrieves info that user shouldn't have access.

If I run the IE task in the browser with the user it run fine too.

 

here is the code:

publicstatic String ieTaskRun(String Task1, String Name1, String Group1, String userNa) throws WTException, IOException, IEException {

String obid1 = "";

String obType = "";

try{

IeService ieService = new IeService();

Task objtask = new Task(Task1);

objtask.setService(ieService);

//>>>> Here is where I'm trying to set username who will run the task <<<

objtask.setUsername(userNa);

String groupOutName = Group1;

objtask.setParam("name", Name1);

objtask.setParam("GROUP_OUT", Group1);

System.out.println("**** ieTaskRun Check entering task **** " + userNa);

 

objtask.invoke();

Group prlnks = ieService.getGroup(groupOutName);

System.out.println("ieTaskRun element: " + prlnks.getElementCount());

 

if (prlnks.getElementCount() > 0){

 

for (intp = 0; p< prlnks.getElementCount(); p++)

{

obid1 = (String) prlnks.getAttributeValue(p, "number");

obType = (String) prlnks.getAttributeValue(p, "type");

if (obType.equalsIgnoreCase("CAD Document")){

obid1 = obid1 + ":" + (String) prlnks.getAttributeValue(p, "version");

}else{

obid1 = obid1 + ":" + (String) prlnks.getAttributeValue(p, "revision");

}

System.out.println("ieTaskRun obid Task: " + obid1 + " Object Type: " + obType);

 

if(obType.equalsIgnoreCase("CAD Document"))

{

returnobid1;

}

}

}

} catch(Exception e) {

   //e.printStackTrace(System.err);

 

   returnobid1;

  }

 

returnobid1;

 

}//end of method ieTaskRun

Full text indexing / search - SolidWorks drawings

I may have posted this earlier - don't remember.

 

We now have indexing in place (Solr - 10.2 M020), working perfectly for Creo Drawings.   Hoping to extend to SolidWorks drawings.

 

Tech support case C12917558 has been open for a bit.  In general tech support has been saying (not totally confidently) that indexing of SolidWorks drawings seems to be working on their end but no Solid Works drawings are retuned using keyword search for text on the drawings.

 

Looking for anyone who has experience with this.

 

thanks

We created a project in Auto execution  mode. Then we import a project plan(.mpp) file in it.  It has few Phases (summary activities). All activities of a phase are completed (100% work complete and has  'Tick Mark' symbol) but for summary activity it still shows status as "unavailable"('Question Mark' symbol) and state as "In Process".


If project is created in manual mode then summary activity shows status as completed.

Following are environment Details

Can you define a publishing rule for a drawing of a simple model and refuse it for a drawing of an assembly ?

Hi,

 

We have an publisher setup to create a dxf file for all drawings during check in but this is in fact not needed for drawings of an assembly and also considering the diskspace these take. Is it possible to define a publishing rule (xml file) in version 10.2 that will publish only for a drawing of a simple model an not for a drawing of an assembly ?

 

Best regards, Bernard

Publishing a WTPart

Is there a system setting to turn on publishing a WTPart?  The representation is carried froward from the CAD doc just fine when they are all checkout  / checkin together.  The issue I am seeing is when a WTPart is iterated due to adding additional information to it...then you have to manually click on the viewable on the details page to get the system to create a publish job.  This seems like there should be a setting someplace.

 

Thanks,

Windchill 11 Upgrade in place

Hi,

We are beginning our investigation into upgrading from Windchill 10.2 M030 to Windchill 11 on the same hardware.  I've been reading the installation and upgrade guides (5 or 6 of them) and I'm still a little confused.  The upgrade steps reference the installation guide for setting up the "target" system.  The target system in our case are the same servers as the source system.  The confusing part (to me at least) is this, do I need a new Oracle user for the installation? The upgrade guide talks about exporting the data from the source database and importing into the target database before running the Upgrade Manager tool. Do I need to do this or just point Windchill 11 to the original database user and run Upgrade Manager?

Revise automatically changes the Lifecycle State to "In Work"

August 15, 2012, 10:45 am

Hi everyone,

 

We are using Windchill 10.0 M030

 

Whenever our designers revise a part, WTpart, or .dwg (ex A to B), Windchill automatically kicks the file's Lifecycle State back to "In Work" on the default template. We created our own custom template with the appropriate States, but this glitch is also even happening on test parts using the default template. Every time a part or dwg gets a revision, we have to reset the state for each file.

 

We haven't gotten the managerial PLM features integrated into company procedures yet, so for now this is just an annoyance for designers using Windchill. However, as we move forward, this could cause some serious problems and confusion.

 

Is there a preference somewhere to configure Windchill so that when revising, it maintains the same Lifecycle state and template? I cannot seem to find one.

 

Thanks

 

-Jon

Non-product specific knowledge capture in Windchill?

Hi Folks,

Sure miss the days of the email exploder (ProE) as I so rarely remember to look at forums (yep, I am a dinosaur).

 

This is a non CAD question about capturing knowledge that is not part or product specific.  This is the sort of information you want to reuse for other projects across your organisation.  In a previous job it was silos of information kept in windows folders, some more easily accessed than others and others buried deep in somebodies personal HDD or even paper files!  In my present job we have specific software for this but it is a standalone system and I wonder about using Windchill for storing this design related non-part/product specific reference information as it is not related to PLM as such.

 

Some examples could be:

  • Bend Radii for different materials/thicknesses/hardness's (though this would likely be in a bend table in Creo where is the reference information for it?)
  • Reference articles on deep drawing of sheet metal
  • Reference information on various adhesives (some of which are not in any BoM)
  • Reference links to company products that have been researched
  • ???

 

Usually with Windchill we have a part or assembly number or possibly a process number to attach files of various types to.  But if there is no number?

 

My general thinking is to try and consolidate systems so that more people are more familiar with that one system so can better do their work.

 

Thoughts?

 

Regards, Brent

JSP Page to Set State

I am working on an administrative JSP page that would allow me to Set-State on wtdocuments and/or epmdocuments. I am using the Search-Objects webject to search for and get the information about the documents but, I cannot find a webect that allows me to set-state. Would anyone know how this could be accomplished in a JSP page? Is this something I would need to create a java class to handle? I have limited exposure to java so I would like to stick with the JSP if possible. Here is the search page I have currently. I would like to have the button that is clicked submit the request to the server for the state change.
