What would be the best procedure for switching revisions schemes between a development phase and a production phase? Our development phase would be alpha characters and at production would switch to numeric.

How to stop a User selecting himself as an Approver in Promotion Request?
We need to configure a business process in which we are using the Default "Promotion Request Approval Process" that is available OOTB. We want to stop the users from selecting themselves as an Approver in the Promotion Process.
PTC Tech support said this isn't possible. But doesn't this kill the process by itself? When the process isn't fool proof to stop the user selecting himself as an approver what is the use of it then? Is this achievable through any configuration options?
Thanks in advance!

Login failed for user, Failed to acquire JDBC connection
Background:
OLD: Windchill PDM Essentials 10.2 M030 production server
New: 11.0 M020 test server
I have successfully installed Windchill 11.0 on a new VM, imported our SQL database from production to test using Microsoft SQL Management restore/replace function.
On the new test server I have a different SQL password. I've updated that using xconfmanager but still can't login.
"xconfmanager -s wt.pom.dbPassword=<NewPassword> -t db/db.properties -p"
However, I can login using those credentials directly to Microsoft SQL. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

How to Customize Affected Objects View Table
i need to add an editable Additional Comments column to Affected Objects table to be used in Problem Report and Change Request.
How do i do that?
1. created new attribute called ADDITIONAL_COMMENTS
2. added to Affected Activity Data type, wt.change2.AffectedActivityData.
3. i updated the com.ptc.windchill.enterprise.change2.change2clientResource.java with the following:
@RBEntry("Additional Comments")
@RBComment("Label to be used in the Table Views")
public static final String CHANGE_LINK_DESCRIPTION2 = "CHANGE_LINK_DESCRIPTION2";
4. updated the wncWeb.jar file
- what else do I need to do??
- I want to make this attribute editable while adding parts to Affected Objects. Right now, it does not allow to do so.
The only OOTB attribute it Comments is editable.

How do I grant read access to just one specific folder?
I was asked to grant a read-only access to contents in a single folder (and its sub-folders), within a product context to which this particular user does usually have access (they're not part of any team that has access to this product context).
Is that feasible? And if so, how do I go about doing this?
I tried to use the "manage security" function and have granted "Read" access to this user / group, but now I don't know how they can navigate to this folder and add objects to their workspace etc... - in other words, the product context does not show up in their list of places to browse...

Finish button in Change Request creation wizard does not appear
Need help here.
We are currently using Windchill PDMLink v10.2 M030-CPS21 and have encountered an issue that appears to be happening more and more often.
During creation of a Change Request and performing Steps 1-3 in the Creation wizard, the Finish button does not activate. The only recourse by the user is to Cancel the CR wizard and start over. This happens about 20% of the time, but seems to be coming more prevalent. Has anyone else seen this phenomenon?
We are currently running Java 8 update 45
Thanks,

How to move Windchill on Windows server to Linux
Hi Windchill Gurus,
Our company has an old Windchill 9.1 running on Windows 2003 server, and we are planning to retire windows 2003 server soon, so we want to move it to Linux (RHL-2.6.32)
But I don't find any documents about rehost windchill from Windows to Linux. BTW, all Oracle DBs are running on Solaris which will remain untouched.
I was hoping anyone from the community can give us some advice please.

How to create AML part which is associated with the new part creation?
Hi All,
I am trying to create new part, where I have added one extra attribute as "Create_AML". I want to create an AML part, which is associated with the part created. If Create_AML attribute value is set to yes then one more wizard step will be there. For this I have added one step in createPartWizard.jspf as action = createNewAMLWizStep and created createNewAMLWizStep.jsp. I need more clarification for this requirement.
Thanks in Advance.

Access to Workspace from a different user
Hallo zusammen,
folgende Fragestellung an das Forum. Vorab, wir arbeiten mit Creo Direct Modeling und dem Windchill Workgroupmanager 10.2 M030-CPS18 auf dem Client und serverseitig mit CPS22.
Ist es in PTC Windchill 10.2 als Admin möglich irgendwie an die Daten eines Users in seinem persönlichen Workspace zu kommen um diese Einzuchecken?
Kurze Beschreibung des Falles:
Ein User ist erkrankt und hat neu angelegte Daten in seinem persönlichen Workspace, diese sind zwar in den Commonspace hochgeladen und für mich als Admin ersichtlich, aber nicht eingecheckt. Nun sollte ich die Daten irgendwie "frei" bekommen, dass ein anderer User diese weiterbearbeiten kann. Neuanlage geht nicht, der Artikel ist bereits im System vorhanden und beim Einchecken bemerkt das System, dass im Commonspace eines Users Modell und Zeichnung bereits vorhanden sind, und bringt eine Fehlermeldung. Des weiteren möchten wir den aktuellen Stand nicht einfach nochmals erarbeiten.
Lösungen unter Übernahme des Useraccounts mittels Adminrechten / Zurücksetzen seines Passwortes sind aus datenschutzrechtlichen Gründen nicht erwünscht.
Vielleicht gibt es ja Windchill-Erfahrene die eine Idee hätten? Ansonsten sehe ich das als eklatanten Mangel des Systems an?
