One of the leading manufacturers of educational products such as interactive whiteboards is currently using PTC suite of PLM products (PDMLink 10.0). This project deals with business configuration of the system to enable capabilities that address functional business requirements and desired features. Out of-the-box business configurations like the default numbering scheme, lifecycle templates, versioning series, object initialization rules, attributes and other related configurations of the existing Windchill environment are already packaged in the Windchill PDMLink 10.0 environment. There are certain features such as custom roles, custom lifecycle states, custom versioning series, soft types, workflow, lifecycle, organization creation, object initialization rules, access control rules for libraries and products which are specific to an organization and are recommended to be defined at the organization level. This can be achieved by deploying configured files into this Windchill PDMLink 10.0 system using Load files, import function and other manual settings.

Abstract


One of the leading manufacturers of educational products such as interactive whiteboards is currently using PTC suite of PLM products (PDMLink 10.0). This project deals with business configuration of the system to enable capabilities that address functional business requirements and desired features. Out of-the-box business configurations like the default numbering scheme, lifecycle templates, versioning series, object initialization rules, attributes and other related configurations of the existing Windchill environment are already packaged in the Windchill PDMLink 10.0 environment. There are certain features such as custom roles, custom lifecycle states, custom versioning series, soft types, workflow, lifecycle, organization creation, object initialization rules, access control rules for libraries and products which are specific to an organization and are recommended to be defined at the organization level. This can be achieved by deploying configured files into this Windchill PDMLink 10.0 system using Load files, import function and other manual settings.
