Do you know the exact location of the configuration file for the Userpicker data utility?
Are there other attributes you need to hide or modify, or is it just the RoleName attribute?
Do you have the necessary permissions to edit the configuration files in your Windchill installation?

Hi @SS_10607365

I guess that it is not possible to do so without customization. That means you have to change the ootb jsp file.

You do not want to touch the ootb jsp so you are in a trap 😄

@SS_10607365 , how about using a DataUtility to remove elements in the Role name drop-down menu?

Would that be an acceptable solutions?
