Windchill System Customizations Report

The utility gathers the details of modifications made to your Windchill system and generates the WindchillSystemCustomizationsReport.xml report. The report is useful to identify the customization and configuration changes in a Windchill installation when you plan to migrate, update or upgrade your Windchill system.

When Windchill is installed, a serverbasereport.xml file is generated at Windchill/utilities/SHA1BaseReports. A new serverbasereport.xml file is generated during upgrade of Windchill. The serverbasereport.xml file is updated during update. The utility compares the modified files and directories with the server base report of entire Windchill codebase and default configuration files to generate the customization report. During installation, upgrade or update, the properties file in server base report, site.xconf and declaration.xconf are archived.

PTC strongly recommends that you must not modify server base report file.

Using the information from the categorized WindchillSystemCustomizationsReport.xml about files that were modified for customization purposes, those files are further compared with the OOTB files that are stored in wtsafeArea or wtcustom to generate comparison reports. The basis for categorization is shown in the following figure:

The customizations made to ignore list are not included in the customization report.

You can set the frequency of report generation to every two weeks or every month.
