Modifying Windchill ESI Preferences
Background
Windchill ESI preferences are read from the database when the Windchill Method Server is brought up or when they are modified from the Preference Management utility. The preferences define two major types of capabilities – configurable option settings and class extension specifications.
See the Preference Management utility for a complete description of all Windchill ESI preferences.

Windchill ESI preferences may be edited using the Preference Management utility option that appears under > or > . Preferences that are visible from the Preference Management utility under > may be set for the Site while those that are visible from the Preference Management utility under > may be set for a given organization. There are certain preferences that are visible from both Site and Organizational contexts – if such a preference is set for a given organization, it will be used by ESI for that organizational context; however, if the preference is not set for the organization, ESI will use the corresponding value set for Site.
