Install sample validation tests on the Teamcenter server

Note

The Teamcenter administrator performs this task.

Procedure

1. On the Teamcenter server, navigate to the directory where the manufacturing validation test samples are installed.For example, $CD_ROOT/additional_applications/mfg_validation_test_sample/samples.

2. Copy the entire directory, and then navigate to a local directory and paste the contents there.For example, c:/apps/ mfg_validation_test_sample/samples. This is your validation samples directory.

3. Open a Teamcenter command prompt.

4. Build the sample code and in the TC_ROOT\bin folder, use the resulting .dll file.For more information, see Build customized manufacturing validation tests and Install and verify customized manufacturing validation tests.

5. Change to the validation samples directory and execute the following command: mfgValidationTestCallbackInstaller.bat <user> create.

   Note The .bat file is written so that ==. Update the .bat file if this is not true.

   The console displays a Successfully Registered message.

6. Start the Teamcenter Rich Client and log on as an administrator.

7. In Teamcenter, choose Edit → Options, and click the Search tab at the bottom.

8. In the Options dialog box, locate the following preferences:

   MfgValidationTestFramework_Client_EP_ValidationTestTypes

   MfgValidationTestFramework_Client_MBM_ValidationTestTypes

   MfgValidationTestFramework_Client_MBM_ClosureRules

   The first preference defines test types for validation checks in the Process panel or tab in the Process Planning or Work Instructions Authoring pages. The last two preferences define test types and closure rule names for validation checks in the BOM Alignment page. Example MfgValidationTestFramework_Client_MBM_ClosureRules=AccountabilityAll expands a top assembly line along with assigned child lines.

9. Add the -type argument value from the mfgValidationTestCallbackInstaller.bat file that you just registered to this preference.

10. Save changes to the preference, and exit out of the Options dialog box.
