  • Windchill MPMLink 12.1

Description

  • Consumed objects are unexpectedly not displayed as Phantom in Upstream after Remove of another subassembly from the equivalent Downstream structure
  • Reproducible in both WEBGL and in MS Edge ran in IE Mode (using IE Plugin) technologies
  • Steps to reproduce the issue:
    1. Open Upstream Structure with Visualization containing 2 sub-assemblies in Upstream tab of BOM Transformer
    2. Open one Object ( a Manufactring object previously created in Folder pages) in Downstream tab of BOM Transformer
    3. Create Equivalent link between the 2 structures
    4. Copy the 2 Sub-Assemblies children of the TOP Upstream structure, and Assemble them "as is" in Downstream Structure
    5. Select first assembly and perform Remove Assembly and Move Up Child
    6. Close BOM Transformer
    7. Access PSB of the Upstream Structure and Remove second assembly
    8. Open Upstream Structure in a new BOM Transformer and access Visualization tab
    9. Observe that consumed components from first sub-assembly display as Phantom as expected
    10. In Downstream Structure, select the second assembly (now missing from Upstream structure) and select Remove
    11. Observe that consumed components from first sub-assembly unexpectedly display as Solid now
