Description
- How to disable auto-association for a specific CAD document when checking in the CAD document with option Auto Associate Parts to CAD Document.
- How to set the preference Part Structure Override Attribute Name.
- How exclude generic from a Creo Parametric family table from autoassociating to a WTPart on check-in
- How to exclude parts from BOM Structure in Windchill
- Is there a condition that can be configured to not auto-associate generics or other specific family table items?
- Is it possible to exclude a CAD part from the BOM of an assembly, but include it in the BOM of another assembly?
- Is it possible to disable auto-association for a specific CAD document when no parameter is filled defined in Part Structure Override Attribute Name
- If a CAD part is added to an assembly by several times, is it possible to include only one of them to the BOM(WTPart) Structure?
- Is it possible to exclude some specific components from BOM for NX assembly?
- The model is associated with the corresponding wtpart through the material number filled in the model attribute. The option Auto Associate Parts to CAD Document is checked by default. Requirement: When the model attribute Material number is empty or does not have this attribute value, the model is checked in. How can I not automatically generate the Material number but just check in the model?
- When saving a Creo assembly into Windchill PDMLink and using Auto Associate to automatically create the WTParts and EBOM, is there a mechanism that can prevent a WTPart from being created for a selected Creo component, and/or that Creo component could be excluded from the EBOM?
- How to maintain auto-association disabled for specific CAD documents and prevent building certain component to Part structure during check-in with Auto Associate Parts to CAD Documents option
- How to keep auto-association disabled for specific CAD documents and specific occurrences of CAD parts excluded from building part structure when Auto Associate Parts to CAD Documents option is selected by default
- While keeping NO_PART for disabling auto-association for specific CAD Documents, Is it possible to add NO_BUILD at component level to prevent occurrences from building part structure
