How to Automatically Display the Number of Unique Component Types in a Drawing Using Parameters
Hello,
I am looking for a way to calculate the number of unique component types (excluding duplicates) in an assembly and automatically display this value in a drawing using parameters in Creo Parametric.
The goal is to achieve something like the red box in the attached image, where the number of unique components (e.g., ) is calculated and shown. If a part is used multiple times (e.g., the same part number), it should still be counted as one unique type.3
Questions:
- How can I create a parameter that calculates the number of unique component types in an assembly?
- What steps are needed to insert this parameter into a drawing?
- Are there any additional Relation settings or tips required to make this work?

Example Image Description:
- The red box in the image shows where I want the number of unique component types (e.g., 3) to appear in the drawing.
I would greatly appreciate detailed steps or examples to help implement this. Thank you in advance!
