Creo schematics XML version into cabling drawing

[LK_10080738]

Hello everybody,

I am creating a design of wiring harness in schematics and I would like to do a flat harness drawing in creo cabling afterwards. Is there a way how to display in flat drawing version of XML file which was used for creation of 3D harness?

Eg. if I export file from schematics named XMLdesign012023.xml and then import it into creo cabeling. Can I automatically in creo flat harness drawing display something which says Design based on: XMLdesign012023.xml

I can write it manually, but we are more people working on the harnesses so there is a change that someone will forget and than we are not able to know what was the source and if the design from schematics is reflected in drawing or not

I normally use repeat region feature to view cabling parameters at drawing, could it be done in similar way? Or maybe via parameters?

Thanks everyone for answers

Hi LK_10080738,

Thank you for your question.

Hi,

There is a creo relation function named "cbl_logical_file".

With that relation you can add a parameter to your assembly e.g.

In a drawing you can then create a table where you display this parameter e.g.

Add a report parameter "&mdl.param.value"

Add a filter for the repeat region... "&mdl.param.name == LOGICAL_FILE_NAME"

Then you can have a table that looks like... (My xml file was named "hertta_Alaovi_creo.xml")

You can propagate this parameter to your subcomponents (harness parts or other) with these instructions (not normally needed)...
