I have a BOM table exploded the all sub-components. I can reach all component's name and parameters. However I couldn't reach top level information. 

Is there any way to add name or its parameter of top level assembly?

Please see the attached picture for the sample.

 

Thanks in advance!

I know I'm digging out an old topic but it turned out I'll need something similar to this for the ERP system we're implementing, so I was wondering if someone found out how to solve this problem. I need the file name of the assembly that the part/sub-assembly belongs to. &asm.name only gives the file name of the top level assembly which doesn't help.

Hi,

I think requested functionality is not available. You have to get information manually, for example:

  • open assembly
  • use Bill of Materials command (writes .bom.* file into working directory)
  • extract information from .bom.* file

Below you can see an example of assembly structure

Assembly 00_KOMPLET contains:
 1 Sub-Assembly 01_SKRIN
 1 Sub-Assembly 02_PAKA
 1 Sub-Assembly 03_PIST
 1 Part MH_PODSTAVA



Sub-Assembly 01_SKRIN contains:
 1 Part I_PLYWOOD_BACK
 4 Part J_CORNER_SUPPORT
 2 Part I_PLYWOOD_SIDE
 3 Part H_FRONT_BRACE
 1 Part K_DOOR
 1 Part MH_DNO
 1 Part F_LEVER_FULCRUM
 2 Part MH_PODSTAVA



Sub-Assembly 02_PAKA contains:
 1 Part A_HANDLE
 2 Part B_LEVER



Sub-Assembly 03_PIST contains:
 1 Part D_COMPRESSOR_PAD
 1 Part C_COMPRESSOR_ARM
 2 Part E_COMPRESSOR_PAD_SUPPORT
