Configuring Mass Update for Object Attributes
To control the attributes that can be updated when using the Mass Update Manufacturing Objects action, you need to specify the allowed object types and object attributes in the following file:
WT_HOME/codebase/com/ptc/windchill/mpml/xconfs/mpmlink.wt.properties.xconf
Specify Allowed Types
<Property name="massUpdate.AllowedTypes" default="WCTYPE|internal name of type 1,WCTYPE|internal name of type 2"/>
For example:
<Property name="massUpdate.AllowedTypes" default="WCTYPE|wt.part.WTPart,WCTYPE|wt.doc.WTDocument"/>
* 
You do not need to specify the subtypes of each type as they will be included when you specify the type.
You can similarly configure the following property to specify the object types that cannot be updated when using Mass Update Manufacturing Objects.
<Property name="massUpdate.ExcludedTypes" default="WCTYPE|internal name of type 1,WCTYPE|internal name of type 2"/>
Specify Allowed Attributes
<Property name="massUpdate.Attribute.WCTYPE|internal name of type" default="internal name of attribute 1,internal name of attribute 2"/>
For example:
<Property name="massUpdate.Attribute.WCTYPE|wt.part.WTPart" default="supplier,location,category"/>
* 
Ensure that the type you specify here is included in the massUpdate.AllowedTypes property.
Default Properties
The table displays the properties listed in the mpmlink.wt.properties.xconf file to configure Mass Update Manufacturing Objects for the attributes defined for different object types. You can edit these properties as needed.
