Hello all,
I am currently using EPDM for my company's files, and we want to make cost lists for any of our assemblies we create. I am severely stuck in here (in that issue) and cannot get a solution. Also, is it possible to export a .xls cost list for any of our assies?
Thank you in advance.
ps: I do not know if a related topic was posted before, probably it is, in the search i did nothing was found.
thanks again.!
Hello Emmanual,
This is can be accomplished if you can add the variable onto a file's datacard and key in the values manually.
I have attached a document which shows it in simple steps.
Hope this helps!

TY very much Raghav, I'm so excited with your immediate response!!! ty so much!!!
I meant that it would be very cosy, to calculate automatically the cost of an assy, and exporting it to a .xls(x) file.
e.g.: your example. Base1.sldprt costs 2058$, and SideBase2.sldprt costs 145$. how possible is to make a function that sums up the total cost of the assembly?
thanks again Raghaw for your help!
Forum is a great place to learn and share !
Unfortunately, this is not possible by OOTB (Out of the Box configuration) unless you do some custom programming.
Let me know if you would need more info and we would be happy to customise it for you.
Regards,
Raghav.
Emmanouel,
See the attached video and hope this is what you would need. There is a great room for improvement.

TY again, so much Raghavendra!
Forum is a great place, indeed!! Because of its members!
I watched your video, but i did not understand how you managed to make the "Calculate Cost" function. and how it's get connected with the .xls file. Indeed, there is a great room for improvement, and thank you once again for "trigging" me to start getting busy with that issue.
Hello Emmanouel,
We created an custom add-in, to get the "Calculate Cost" on the RMB. When you click that our programme will run and fetch the values on the data cards of the files for all the parts and sub assemblies linked to the main assembly and exports that information into excel file.
Hope this helps !
