Bulk Item Qty in Repeat Region

[dgschaefer]

Creo 2 (M120)

I'm trying to get my repeat region to report AR for my bulk items.  I found these repeat region relations listed here and several other places:

IF asm_mbr_type == "BULK ITEM"

QTY = "AR"

ELSE

QTY = rpt_qty

ENDIF

However, when I enter them in my repeat region relations (Table tab, click repeat region, click relations, select region, enter relations in the dialog), I get errors saying asm_mbr_type & rpt_qty are invalid symbols.

What am I doing wrong here?

They need to be listed in the parameters of the repeat region. (You can view these by going to repeat region relations.) Anything that is used as a column in the repeat region will already be listed. If you have other things you want to reference (like asm_mbr_type), either temporarily add it to a column or manually add it to the list of repeat region parameters.

That did it, thanks.

So, the built in system parameters have to be listed in the dialog, or Creo doesn't know they exist? 

Even after 18 years, PTC still manages to surprise me with the stupidity of their interface.
