To enable whether or not the search dialog box includes an ECO field,
enter a value for this property in the ief.properties
file:
mcadIntegration.ECOAttributeName=
As installed, the value for this property is blank and
the ECO field does not show on the search dialog box. Set the value for
this property to the attribute used to store the connected ECO value.
X-CAD Design Management installs the IEF-ConnectedECO
attribute that you can use for this purpose.
When the field is present and the user enters a valid value, the search
results include all objects that have that ECO value in the IEF-ConnectedECO
attribute on the design object. This attribute is not populated by the
out-of-the-box design, but must be populated by a custom trigger (for
example, a trigger on the Part object that runs when an ECO is connected
to it).
The Search Results page also shows the ECO value. If a value is not
entered for the ECO field, the ECO column does not show on the Search
Results page.
You can also configure whether or not users can enter wildcards in
the ECO field on the search dialog box using this property:
mcadIntegration.AllowWildCardsInECOSearch=true
To disable wildcards for ECO searches, change the value
to false
(default is true
).
