Replication Summary Reports
Summary reports are generated prior to assigning the review or approval task when a package is routed for dependency review, that is when using the Dependency Evaluation and Locking for Participation in Replication Routing for Object Collector Package or Dependency Evaluation and Locking for Participation in Replication Routing for Context Collector Package option. The reports display various information, such as the selected objects and their dependents, the objects that are eligible for and excluded from locking, the violators, and the objects and links that will be removed after replication. You need to be a member of the Replication Authority group to access the summary reports. The reports are generated based on the access rights given to the Replication Authority group. Out of the box, the group does not have access right to any object in Windchill. Even if you have access to an object, the identity information of that object will not be displayed in the reports if the group does not have access. The text “Secured Information” is displayed as the object identity in the reports and on the Task page. To view the identity information, the Administrator needs to explicitly provide Read access to the Replication Authority group for the object. The report displays “Secured Information” also for those contexts to which the group does not have permission.
Out of the box, the Summary_Dependency_Chain and Summary_Objects_ToBe_Marked reports are not displayed for the Context Collector package. The Administrator needs to add the following properties in the Windchill/codebase/wt.properties file to display the reports
• For Summary_Dependency_Chain: com.ptc.windchill.wp.contextcollector.enableSummaryDependencyReport=true
• For Summary_Objects_ToBe_Marked: com.ptc.windchill.wp.contextcollector.enableSummaryObjectsTobeMarkedReport=true
