HI, I need some help please.
We use different tubes for Pneumatic supplies, 316 stainless, 6M0 and Monel.
we have 9 digit numbers set up for the different pipe sizes and material, when we insert a tube into our assembly it automatically comes up with
Tube_1-Assemxx<1>
when we go to make a drawing from this and a bom from that it comes up with that description.
Is there any way we can get the config number to come up as the part number and the description change depending on what routing base configuration we use, ie we have 1 for monel 1 for 316 etc.
cheers
Mark
Hi Mark
You can edit the part description in the configuration properties. If you enter in your description and then tick the box below it that description will be used in your BOM. If look under the bill of materials options, you can select from Document Name, Configuration Name or User Specified Name for to show up as the part number for the configuration.
You can also create configuration specific properties by selection "File - Properties" and then select the "configuration specific" tab and create any properties you want for each configuration
