An Assembly BOM is carried over to the Drafting which allows you to hold BOM tables of a single assembly in several drawings, all synchronized with the same data.
Any change to the Drafting BOM, except the addition of a new column, causes the Drafting BOM to be disconnected from the Assembly BOM.
The Reconnect to Model button
is displayed if there is a change in the data of the
Drafting BOM that does not exist in the Assembly BOM. This button appears
in the BOM Table Editor
and ID Number dialogs. When the two BOMs are
synchronized, the Reconnect to Model
button is grayed out.
BOM Table Editor dialog example:
To re-synchronize the Assembly and Drafting BOMs:
Press the Reconnect
to Model button .
A message is displayed asking you if you want to overwrite the changes to the Drafting BOM with those from the Assembly BOM.
|
Yes |
Synchronize the two BOMs. The Drafting BOM is overwritten by the Assembly BOM. |
|
No |
The Drafting BOM remains disconnected from the Assembly BOM. In this case, the Drafting BOM will still receive updates from the Assembly BOM, but any local change in the Drafting BOM is kept. |
Press Yes. The data that was changed (in this case in the BOM Table Editor) reverts back to its original value from the Assembly BOM.
Press Apply to update the Drafting BOM Table and the ID Num.
Note that the Reconnect to Model button is now grayed out as the two BOMs (Assembly and Drafting) are now synchronized.
