ProE-Teamcenter Integration

[Shampa G]

Has anyone worked on Pro-E teamcenter enterprise integration ?
Pro-Toolkit offers a comprehensive set of libraries to extract data
from Pro-E , what else would be required to complete the flow of
integration .

[kishore chowdary]

Hi,

 

This is kishore working on Tc-ent. To my knowledge "Pro/Toolkit doesn't play any role in integrating with Teamcenter Enterprise".

 

There is a seperate integrator "Direct Interface for Pro/Engineer" through with U can interact with pro/e objects. U will be provided with sepated set of "Pro/e classes" like "ProTool, ProWorkB.........etc" for handling Pro/Engineer application and Workbench Window

 

Let me know if this info is helpful..

Regards

Hello -

Who is the maker of this separate integrator "Direct Interface for Pro/E"?  We have been looking for solutions for this also.
We did test the "Rich Client", but that wasn't working the way we needed it to (and from what I hear, it won't in the near future either).
Any more information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Yes Kishore , i have heard about this Pro/e-TcEnt interface module .I
believe Tcent has integrator / interface module for most CAD
applications.But sometimes they donot work properly on Rich client .We
had used Cadence -Tcent integrator which failed to work the way we
wanted on Rich Client .
Thanks anyways , i would try to grab some info from UGS .

You are right ,Pro/toolkit doesnot play the direct role for integrating
with TcEnt , but being an customization kit of Pro/E , it helps to
create standalone execs to get info etc from pro/e . And you must be
aware that ,it can also create menus etc on Pro/e application as you
have shown in figure.

Hi,

 

Thanks for the info Snampa.. I came to know that "Tc-ent Integrator for pro/e is not working properly for Rich Client"

 

Ya.. I know that stand alone applications can be created using Pro/toolkit.

Hi All,
There are 2 classic client based integrations for Teamcenter Enterprise. One integrates to Pro-Intralink and one deals directly with ProE. If I remember correctly the one that dealt directly with ProE functioned better. I am coming late to the discussion, however, do you need to know any specific information about them.

Jason

Hi,

 

Thanks for the info. The problem is with the  Pro/E & Tc-ent integration with Rich Client.

 

So it would be helpful if you can let us know, are there any patchsets available (at UGS) while trying to use Pro/E Tc-ent Integrator (classic-client) for the same Tc-ent Rich Client also.

HI Jason -

I was just inquiring about these options.  There may be a possibility for us to need something like these, so I was asking this group if they had any info.
For the most part, I wanted to find out if there are any problems/issues with these integrators and any details about them.  Any info is helpful.

Thanks in advance

Hi JJae,
The Rich Client is functioning properly at my customer site when dealing with UGNX and Catia data. They have recently released TCEnt2005 SR1 which is recommended for anyone running rich client. If you are having issues with the Pro/E connector I would recommend upgrading to the TCEnt2005 SR1 level. I know that you have some UGS people at Dana and they should help you debug any issues that you have if there are still problems. I have worked at Dana on the initial Teamcenter project and I know that you once were using TC Automotive Solution with the Classic Interfaces (D5U, IMI, Catia V4 Interface). The Classic Interfaces in general are very mature, but require a managed client on each users desktop. If this is still the case then the Pro/E integrations would work just like the D5U and Catia V4 interface that you had when I was previously there. When I worked with the Pro/E interface about 6 years ago at United Defense there wasn't any significant issues. I hope some of this information helped.

Jason

Hello Jason,

We are currently using TcEnt40 . And we are on discussion to integrate
TC to Pro/e . Our TcEnt integration with Cadence failed badly,
so, we are thinking of implementing third party tool instead any
tc/integrator or interface module .
It seems you are recommendating to upgrade TCEnt inorder to facilitate
better integration .
Do you have any idea abt the Cadence -Tcent integration ?

Regards
Shampa

Hello Jason/group,

I have a question regarding the authorization permissions to Consumer.

If given the permissions, they can check-in, check-out Business Items
and perform mark-ups/red-lining on presentation files attached to those
Business Items.

However, after giving the necessary permissions (using message access
rules), when the particular user logs into Thin Client, the Check-out
link is not being exposed.

Can somebody please elaborate on how Consumers can use check-in
check-out options on thin client and also on performing
mark-up/red-lining actions on the attached files.

Thanks
Tarun

[Shaddock, Barbara]

I thought the user had to be an Author to check in and out.

[Rajesh Kumar]

Tarun,
Please check if your user is an author or not. Please run the runfile and re-run the dispatcher before you use a user ( conumer ), You won't be able to check in / Check out a business Item either in Classic or Thin client.

Tarun,
As Rajesh mentioned, you should not be able to check-in/check-out if you are a consumer. I believe in the classic client the menu options are greyed out if you are a consumer. In the thin client, it uses criteria to filter the actions that a consumer can perform. Teamcenter may not actually prevent the user from calling the check-out API if you customize to do so, but this would be in violation of the license agreement and should not be attempted for fear of legal action.
I believe view and markup is a valid consumer action. I know this was often a topic of discussion years ago when I worked for UGS, and I think they realized that this is a valid action for a reviewer. Perhaps you are wanting to check-out so you can do the markup? If so, then this is not necessary. Most of the view/markup applications that integrate with Teamcenter (Acrobat, VisView) manage the markups as separate overlay files that don't require modification to the original file.

Hope this helps!
