In document mantis/dtc/05-03-08 from the PLM Services 1.0 specification, chapter 8.12 (Generic Queries Conformance Point), a new query 'work_order_query' should be included to enable the selection of work_order objects, having following parameters: id: String [0..1] work_order_type [0..1]

The resolution will be part of the changes in PLM Services 2.0

In document mantis/dtc/05-03-08 from the PLM Services 1.0 specification, chapter 8.12 (Generic Queries Conformance Point), a new query 'activity_resolved_requests_query' should be included to enable the traversal from activity objects to the work_request objects which are the resolved request of the activity objects, having none parameters.

In document mantis/dtc/05-03-08 from the PLM Services 1.0 specification, chapter 8.12 (Generic Queries Conformance Point), a new query 'activity_authorization_query' should be included to enable the traversal from activity objects to the work_order objects which are the authorization of the activity objects, having none parameters.

Introduction of a new 'specific Query' 'work_order_query' to select work_order objects, as needed by Change Management Scenarios: <xs:complexType name="Work_order_query"> <xs:complexContent> <xs:extension base="Query"> <xs:sequence> <xs:element name="Id" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element name="Id_scope" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element name="Work_order_type" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element name="Version_id" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element name="Classification_role" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element name="Classification_id" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/> </xs:sequence> </xs:extension> </xs:complexContent> </xs:complexType>

New parameter 'Id_scope' in Work_request_query, like currently in all queries that have an Id parameter defined unique only within the scope of an organization: <xs:complexType name="Work_request_query"> <xs:complexContent> <xs:extension base="Query"> <xs:sequence> ... <xs:element name="Id_scope" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/> ... </xs:sequence> </xs:extension> </xs:complexContent> </xs:complexType>

New Query 'Activity_authorization_query' to traverse from activity objects zo work_order objects via the attribute 'authorization'. Since this attribute is optional an INVERSE, it is currently not possible to traverse it. <xs:complexType name="Activity_authorization_query"> <xs:complexContent> <xs:extension base="Query"/> </xs:complexContent> </xs:complexType>

Associated_file_query currently returns only four of the five document_properties: document_creation_property is missing => should be added in the query definition

New Query Effectivity_assignment_query to traverse from effectivity_element_select objects via effectivity_assignment objects to effectivity objects: <xs:complexType name="Effectivity_assignment_query"> <xs:complexContent> <xs:extension base="Query"> <xs:sequence> <xs:element name="Role" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element name="Effectivity_indication" type="xs:boolean" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element name="Element_type_name" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"/> </xs:sequence> </xs:extension> </xs:complexContent> </xs:complexType>

New Query Effectivity_start_end_period_definition_query to traverse from effectivity objects to event_or_date_select objects via the attributes start_definition and end_definition, as well as to duration objects via the attribute period. Both aspects are mutually exclusive, i.e. an effectivity has either start/end_definition or a period. Since these attributes are optional, then can currently not be traversed. <xs:complexType name="Effectivity_start_end_period_definition_query"> <xs:complexContent> <xs:extension base="Query"/> </xs:complexContent> </xs:complexType> <xs:complexType name="Effectivity_assignment_query"> <xs:complexContent> <xs:extension base="Query"> <xs:sequence> <xs:element name="Role" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element name="Effectivity_indication" type="xs:boolean" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element name="Element_type_name" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"/> </xs:sequence> </xs:extension> </xs:complexContent> </xs:complexType>

New Query Event_reference_context_offset_query to traverse from event_reference objects to general_organizational_data_select objects via the attribute event_context, as well as to duration objects via the attribute offset. Since these attributes are optional, then can currently not be traversed. <xs:complexType name="Event_reference_context_offset_query"> <xs:complexContent> <xs:extension base="Query"/> </xs:complexContent> </xs:complexType>

The operations get_download_URL and get_upload_URL may not be combined with other operations like Query, Write, Import and Export. They currently support only one file uid. Example: if a complete assembly structure shall be selected via a recursive query, together with the download of all referenced files, it is currently necessary to call get_download_URL as many times as there are files referenced from the assembly structure... Proposal to combine Query and Download through a new parameter in Associated_file_query: <xs:complexType name="Associated_file_query"> <xs:complexContent> <xs:extension base="Query"> <xs:sequence> <xs:element name="download" type="xs:boolean" minOccurs="0"/> </xs:sequence> </xs:extension> </xs:complexContent> </xs:complexType> If download=TRUE, the corresponding file will be downloaded and the URL will be placed in document_location_property.location_name

New query Product_identification_query to select product_identification objects. Use case at DaimlerChrysler: select existing product reference configuration by name. <xs:complexType name="Product_identification_query"> <xs:complexContent> <xs:extension base="Query"> <xs:sequence> <xs:element name="Id" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element name="Id_scope" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element name="Name" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element name="Name_language" type="xs:language" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element name="Version_id" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element name="Associated_product_class" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element name="Classification_role" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/> <xs:element name="Classification_id" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/> </xs:sequence> </xs:extension> </xs:complexContent> </xs:complexType> Dito for the subtype product_specification: product_specification_query with an additional parameter to restrict the selection through one or many specification id's 

The resolution will be part of the changes in PLM Services 2.0.

New operation set_product_identification to activate a product configuration. Functionality: the product configuration defined through the given product_identification will be activated, so that the following query operations return only the objects that are provided within this product configuration. In the same way, during write or import operations, the incoming data will be checked according to the activated product configuration, before being written or imported. Input parameter is the uid of a product_identification or product_specification object. Return value is nothing (when OK) or an exception. <wsdl:operation name="set_product_identification"> <soap:operation soapAction="" style="rpc"/> <wsdl:input> <soap:header message="Session_id_header" part="session_id" use="literal"/> <soap:header message="Signature_header" part="signature" use="literal"/> <soap:body use="literal" namespace="http://www.omg.org/PLMServices1.0/PLM_connection#query"/> </wsdl:input> <wsdl:output> <soap:body use="literal" namespace="http://www.omg.org/PLMServices1.0/PLM_connection#query"/> </wsdl:output> <wsdl:fault name="Pid_fault"> <soap:fault name="Pid_fault" use="literal" encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"/> </wsdl:fault> </wsdl:operation>

Neue query Activity_resolved_request_query to traverse from activity objects to work_request objects via the attribute resolved_request. Since this attribute is mandatory but aggregate, it is currently not possible to query all its values if all the referenced work_requests are not part of the query result. <xs:complexType name="Activity_resolved_request_query"> <xs:complexContent> <xs:extension base="Query"/> </xs:complexContent> </xs:complexType>
