Removing Instances from Family Tables that are in Windchill

$
0
0

Family Tables are a headache with Windchill. One many of many issues is it's very easy for Creo users to remove Instances from Family Table by simply hitting Delete Row inside of Creo but this can create undesirable scenarios if the objects are already in Windchill. Since the Deleted Instance is now longer attached to the latest Generic model, if a previous Assembly in Windchill used the Deleted Instance, you are unable to update to the latest Generic rev in a workspace. You're stuck with out of date objects in your workspace. However Creo lets you delete instances without telling you that could be bad for Windchill. Our 'standard' has been to tell users not to delete instances from Family Tables once they're in Windchill and simply filter the undesirable instances off the drawing. New users have a habit of finding out the hard way that they shouldn't delete instances. I was curious what other people do... Not worry about it? Found a way to prevent users from deleting instances from Creo? Found any easy fix to get the Creo/Windchill instances associated back together with the generic?

Anyone customized a referenced by link for EPMDocuments?

$

Hello,

 

We have a need to create something like a Referenced By link between WTParts and EPMDocuments. Our use case is mainly for Dynamic Documents (Arbortext), which contain product specific documentation.

 

We have WTParts representing top level assemblies.
We have Arbortext authored product documentation as Dynamic Documents for the WTPart assemblies.
The groups maintaining the WTPart and the Dynamic Documents are independent.
Requirements for change for the product and the documentation are completely independent.
Revisions to the WTPart often do not require revision of the Dynamic Documents, the individual revising the WTPart would not always know the correct course of action for the documentation.
Revisions to the Dynamic Document never require a revision to the WTPart.
We require a Version to Master link that will work for Dynamic Documents similar to how Reference by Links work between a WTPart version and a WTDocument master. This would allow the two groups to work as independently as possible while maintaining the link between the objects we require.

 

The only out of the box association between the objects is content, which is version to version and the configurable link object does not support EPMDocs. This only leaves customisation as a solution. Dynamic documents are a are a sub type of EPMDocs (so are CADDocuments), if we put something in place for EPMDocuments then we can use it for both objects. Like many customers we have use cases for reference linking some CAD content to WTParts also.

 

It seems likely to me that someone might have already done something like we need. Has anyone done it or know of any partners that might sell a solution?

Can we control replication site and master site document entity synchronization according to windchill basic configuration ?

Overseas deployment of a copy of the site,and overseas documents need to return to Shenzhen, but some of the control of the document entity can not be returned, Windchill existing mechanisms can be configured to solve ?(Master fileserver?) Trouble to provide a solution, our Windchill version is 10 M020

Curious if anyone has successfully implemented the Creo View Adapter for SolidWorks when outputting HPGL (.plt) files.  I've followed all the instructions and my plots are coming out upside down.  I'm at a complete loss...

Impact to Windchill end-users in environment with one container vs multiple containers?

$

What is the difference (if any) to the end-user interface in Windchill when the system architecture is designed to use one container versus multiple containers? (I'm not asking about impact for system administrators, just the end-user experience). Thank you.

I attempted to import a drawing format into Windchill, I encoutered the following error.

$

@Operation failed because the user did not have the necessary permission on the following objects to perform the operation: Format  - jjk_cadform_b_stdrd_wm.frm, -.1

 

I recently installed Windchill 11.0.  I am setup as Manager as well as User.

 

I sure can use some help on how to set the permission for drawing format in Windchill?

 

Best Regards,

Item vs CAD structure

$

Hello everyone.

 

I currently work for a company that has a basic PDM system, even the reseller told me it is actually a file manager. This is to say that CAD files are checked in and the CAD structure is used as the BOM.

They have no concept of Item management.  I am trying to build a case for Item management and have an Item vs CAD argumentation.

 

The current PDM allows to link files so as you have a WTpart and its contain.  The CAD files replaces the WTpart and additional files can be linked to the CAD files.

Eg, if I have a model, I can associate office files (such as test report, material specification etc…). This looks similar to what you would do with the WTpart. They are also wanting to link their PDM with their new ERP system. They intend to transfer the BOM. They have not been receptive of the discussion about eBOM and mBOM

I struggle to articulate argumentation in favour of Items with that particular company.

I was wondering if anyone could share his experience.

 

I guess this is the same situation within companies having using PDMLink for many years but never enabled the WTPart.  What argumentation is used to build the case for the WTpart.

Thank you

enumerations

We haven't yet used (new for 10.x) enumerated lists of attribute values, but are preparing to do so. Some of our attributes have very long lists of possible values.


There is no method that we can see to transfer values developed in a test system to production. Has anyone found a way to do this - possible via a Windchill shell command? Note: one can easily capture the values via a query builder report and so typing is not required when adding to production, but lots of copy/paste is still needed.

saving issue

$

When saving an assembly, often times Creo will ask me “Do I want to save/continue/make read only/etc” parts that have really not been intentionally modified. When I indicate “Make Read Only”, I get the message “[filename] could not be saved to the workspace”. Then if I save a second time, the assembly is saved “[filename] has been saved”.

 

Is this something we are doing wrong that makes us have to save twice? Some procedure we need to correct? A setting in the config that needs adjusting? Creo 3.0 F000 Windchill 10.2 M22

 

Thanks in advance,

Good morning,

 

I currently do not have access to Windchill and I have been looking on precisionLMS and the forum but could not find what I need.

I was wondering if one of you would be kind enough to send me the following screenshots (please hide any names or confidential information).

 

  1. The list of projects showing the status of the projects, % of completion etc..  I think this is the default view

 

Change Management: The default report that shows the number of Change Requests, Change notice etc..

 

I want to illustrate my powerpoint with some screenshots that show that how default dashboards look like and how easy it is to get information from it.

 

I hope you see what I am after. Thanks a lot

Upper case constraint for WTPart name (and number)?

Is it possible to force the value of a WTPart name to always be upper case?  e.g if the user enters a value for name in lower case then it is automatically converted to upper case.

Thanks in advance,

Sam
