BOM Table Repeat Region not functioning

Question

Hello, I would like to to override a few items in a BOM table and keep all the items programed.

I have the following code entered but its not working,

I would like "XX" to be renamed to the actual part name "HEX BOLT"

Are there any specific settings I need to review?

Does the type need to be defined, if so where do I do that?

The view contains an assembly with a simplified rep.

I'm using Creo 7.0

The if statements will work by themselves, but I cannot get multiple to work. the syntax seams very specific with spaces and " right now it won't accept the second endif. it would not accept Elseif with a space "Else if" is there a syntax guide?  Hi,elseif is not implemented. Use following code if asm_mbr_name == "28632" PRTNUM="88888"else if asm_mbr_name == "19451_TETHER_STRAP_MSB" PRTNUM="19541" else PRTNUM=asm_mbr_name endifendif

Here are my cheat sheet instructions: Looks like you are missing the rename in the repeat region and the else statement.

CHANGING ITEM IN BOM TABLE

Select “Repeat Region” from “Table” tab
Select “Switch Syms” then “Done.”
1. If first item cell of column to be changed starts with “rpt.rel” go to 3.
2. Double click on first item cell
3. Select rpt… then rel… then User Defined.
  1. Type in Relation name- PRTNUM for part number/QTY for quantity/NAME for Description
Select “Repeat Region” from “Table” tab
Select “Switch Syms”
Select “Relations” then select the table.
Enter text to make change required and select OK/Done.
1. Part Number change:
  - IF asm_mbr_name =="S12345_XXX"
  - PRTNUM="S12345"
  - ELSE PRTNUM= asm_mbr_name
  - ENDIF
2. Quantity change:
  - IF asm_mbr_name ==”S12345”
  - QTY="XXX"
  - ELSE QTY=rpt_qty
  - ENDIF
3. Name change:
  - IF asm_mbr_name=="SA47662"
  - NAME="XXX"
  - ELSE NAME=asm_mbr_name
  - ENDIF
Select OK
Select “Update Tables” from menu then Done.
Multiple changes in a column can be done by nesting IF statements:
- IF asm_mbr_name =="S12345_XXX"
- PRTNUM="S12345"
- ELSE IF asm_mbr_name =="S23456_XXX"
- PRTNUM="S23456"
- ELSE PRTNUM= asm_mbr_name
- ENDIF
- ENDIF
  - One ENDIF for each IF statement
