Import conflict

Conflict Resolution from Event Management

Potential conflicts happen when Windchill objects being imported exist in the Windchill database, and the object properties of the imported and existing objects do not match.

For more information about conflicts and a list of general conflicts that can occur during import, see Conflict Messages for Import.

When importing to a selective system, the usual default resolution is to override any conflict that occurs for an object on the target system with the new or update object from the source system. When importing to a synchronized system, the default resolution is to retry the import. Retrying the import often requires a manual action by the importing user to resolve the conflict. After resolving the issue, the import can be retried using the Event Management utility.

Conflict Resolution using Event Management utility

The first table lists the conflict messages that are specific to importing administrative objects using the business administrative change promotion command-line utility.

• Conflict Description: Message displayed on the command prompt or in the Event Management utility.

• Explanation: Describes the problem that has occurred.

• Available Resolutions: Options that appear if users opt not to accept default resolutions on import.

Conflict Resolution using XML File

The second table lists the valid values for the type of conflict and possible resolutions that you can use in a conflict resolution XML file for import conflicts:

• Conflict Description: Message displayed on the Event Management utility.

• ConflictType Constant: Specifies the valid value for a ConflictType element in the XML file.

• Resolution Constant: Specifies the valid value for a Resolution element in the XML file.

• Manually resolve the issue and retry the import.

• Skip the object import – valid only in selective and development modes.

User does not have modify permission for the following object: <Object identity>

The user running the utility does not have the appropriate permissions to update an imported object on the target system

• Manually resolve the issue and retry the import.

• Skip the object import – valid only in selective and development modes.

A Global Enumeration with same identity already exists: <Object identity>

Global enumeration, modeled enumeration, or custom UI text with the same identity already exists in the target system.

• Overwrite the object on the target system with the object from the source system.

• Skip the object import – valid only in selective and development modes.

Global Enumeration <Object identity> has a different master enumeration on the target system.

An Organizer <organizer name> has a later modified date and time on the target system than the object being imported

When skip resolution is applied on a global enumeration, modeled enumeration, or custom UI text that has a different master enumeration on the target system and the following is true, a complete hierarchy under the immediate organizer is skipped.

• The source and target systems are identical.

• The enumerations or custom UI text of the target and source systems have the same immediate parent organizer.

For example, enumeration definitions are same in the source and target systems as indicated in the following table:

Source	Target
Organizer1	Organizer1
• Organizer2 ◦ Enumeration2A ◦ Enumeration2B • Organizer3 ◦ Enumeration3A	• Organizer2 ◦ Enumeration2A ◦ Enumeration2B • Organizer3 ◦ Enumeration3A

For source and target systems, there is a parent organizer Organizer1, immediate organizers Organizer2 and Organizer3. The immediate organizer Organizer2 has enumerations Enumeration2A, and Enumeration2B.

The immediate organizer Organizer3 has enumeration Enumeration3A.

You update the Enumeration2A, Enumeration2B, and Enumeration3A in the target system by exporting a package from the source system and importing it to the target system. For such scenario, a conflict occurs and the message “A Global Enumeration with same identity already exists: <Object identity> is returned.

When you select the SKIP_OBJECT_IMPORT resolution for Enumeration2A and the OVERWRITE resolution for Enumeration2B and Enumeration3A, then the resolution process skips Enumeration2A. However, it also skips Enumeration2B though you have selected the OVERWRITE resolution for Enumeration2B because Enumeration2A and Enumeration2B have same the common immediate parent organizer, that is, Organizer2.

The target system imports Enumeration3A successfully because the immediate parent organizer is Organizer3.
