Editing an Organization
To edit an organization, use the following procedure:
1. From the right-click actions menu of the organization to be modified, select Edit Organization. You may need to add the organization to the Participant Administration table.
The Edit Organization window opens. This window displays the same fields that are on the New Organization window. The Distinguished Name displayed in the Edit Organization window can not be edited. Editable fields in this window are defined in the following table:
|
Field
|
Description
|
||
|---|---|---|---|
|
Name
|
Specifies the name of the organization. The name you enter must be unique within scope of the directory server you select.
Organization name cannot contain the following characters: #, /, >, \, and <.
The organization name identifies the participants who are members of the organization. Participants whose directory entries conform to both of the following requirements automatically become members of the organization:
• Participants with directory entries in the directory servers that are available in Windchill.
Directory services are established by setting up JNDI adapter entries through the Info*Engine Property Administrator and adding the adapter entries to the wt.federation.org.directoryServices property value.
For additional information, see the LDAP installation settings information.
• Participants belonging to the organization have the organization name specified in the Name field as their organization attribute in their directory entries. The default user organization attribute is "o".

Organization ID
|
Specifies the globally unique organization identifier under which the organization is registered. If the organization is not registered, do not enter a value in this field. Both an organization identifier type and an organization identifier must be specified or both fields must be blank for the organization to be created successfully.
Select the organization identifier type from the drop-down list. By default, the drop-down list contains CAGE Code, DUNS Number, and ISO 6523. If the drop-down list does not contain the type required for your company organization, modify the list by editing the wt.org.organizationTypes property that is located in the wt.properties file. You can use the System Configurator to edit the property.
Enter a value in the text field to specify the organization identifier. Windchill combines the organization type and ID and stores the resulting value in the organizationIdentifier attribute of the organization directory entry.
