Hello ALL
I would like some inputs on how you use Pro-Piping with Windchill. It looks like Pro Piping may have issues with Windchill. When creating a pipe solid feature pro piping creates a new part to place the solid feature in. Pro Piping will not use the same part file again to create solid pipe features in. If pipe solid fails, which they sometimes do and you ever delete the pipe solid, pro piping will force to create a new part file number to place the new solid pipe feature in. Windchill tracks all part names and will not let you create a pipe because part name is in use. You have to create a new part name. This can be a real problem for configuration management and drawings! You cannot delete the pipe solid part from Windchill, if it is on someone's workspace etc..., deleting a part in Windchill is basically impossible. My question is why does Pro-piping not just give me a warning, "pipe solid part already exist, overwrite/update? Yes, No" Any better work around or config options out there would be appreciated?
I am facinng this issue now, How to replace all that in windchill existing part?
Could anyone help with this to fix?
