Advanced Search - Show only last Revision

hdasilva — Fri, 15 Mar 2024 13:46:55 GMT

Hello,

When I try to search for WTparts with specific attributes, it returns results that are not the latest revision although I specifically say that I want only the latest revision:

I also tried to change user preferences to show only latest revision, but with no effect:

Anyone can help?

So, from what I can understand, there is no solution altough there is an idea created 11 years ago with lots of votes. Not a single response from PTC side.

Glad you posted this - has been posted as a question at least 200 times that I can think of in the past many years.

Fundamental issue that many have to deal with and causes confusion many times.

Wish PTC would consider this going forward.

note - Query Builder reports use different logic.

I agree this is frustrating and has been an on-going issue for awhile.

On the bright side, we had a meeting with PTC in January to further explain how this issue impacts us, and it sounds like they are exploring this issue further.
