Change Notices
When you publish a CN with ERP Connector, any objects in the CN, and any documents associated with the objects in the CN, are also published, ensuring that a full CN release package is published. It is possible to configure what data gets published with the CN.
A CN in Windchill PDMLink has a default set of attributes. ERP Connector is configured, by default, to publish all the attributes of a CN that have corresponding attributes in the target system. The list of attributes that are published can also be configured. The following attributes are passed. This list consists of both attributes of the resulting objects and those of the CN itself:
• Number (Change Number)
• Description (Change Number Description)
• Part Number / Assembly Part Number
• Part Version / Assembly Part Version
• Part Start Effectivity Date / Assembly Part Start Effectivity Date
• Component Part Number
• Component Line Number
• Component Quantity
• Component Operation Sequence Number
• Reference Designator
• Substitute Component
• Distribution Targets
• Serial Number Effectivity Start Number
• Serial Number Effectivity End Number
• Lot Number Effectivity Start Number
• Lot Number Effectivity End Number
• Process plan (Routing) part number
• Operation Label
• Department for the Operation
• Resource Number for the operation
• Scheduled Flag for Resources
• Usage Rate for Resources

Note the following:
• While all attributes listed are passed, not all of the attributes are CN attributes. The rest are attributes on the objects being changed and are listed in their respective sections. For example, the Part Number attribute will be listed in the Part element section of the response file.
• When using the CN-centric mode of publishing data, with the distribution target attribute Publish Related Documents when Publishing a Change Notice set to Yes, documents associated to objects in the Change Notice are published as well.
• Documents, and CAD document structures, and option sets that reside as resulting objects in the Change Notice are always published.
