Fishbowl Solutions Releases pubSchedule™ 2.0

Fishbowl Solutions, Inc. has released pubSchedule2.0, an out-of-the-box solution for Windchill® PDMLink® 8.0 + and Windchill® Pro/INTRALINK™ 8.0 +.

Fishbowl Solutions pubSchedule 2.0 enhances the standard Winchill options for publishing viewables of Pro/ENGINEER® product data in PDMLink and Pro/INTRALINK. pubSchedule will allow users to define a subset of items to be published in batch publish mode.The solution allowsusers to set publishing options like "Publish Latest Released" to lessen the impact on their system.

Currently, there are only three options for publishing viewables—publish all, publish latest or publish nothing.Because none of these optionsis whatmost users really need,many havefound thebest work-around is toturn off the batch publish feature. With batch publishing off, users must requestthe viewable they would like published and then wait. Depending on the back log of viewables that are in queue, the wait time for publishing can vary from days to weeks to even months.

With pubSchedule users can:

• Publish on specific object types

• Publish on specific date ranges

• Publish on specific lifecycle states

• Publish latest iterations only

• Publish only objects without representations

• Limit publishing jobs to a number of days back from when the job is run (New in 2.0)

• Allows up to five unique publish jobs to be configured and ran (New in 2.0)

pubSchedule gives publishing control back to the user and reduces their, sometimes lengthy, wait time.
