How to include BOM table(Illustrated Part List) in Arbortext Editor?

[hmungekar]

HI,

I want to add BOM table in Arbortext for a service manual. I am adding BOM table manually in the Editor. I would like to know if there is any other way to add BOM table automatically in the Editor.

Have you worked with Windchill Service Information Manager?

Is the table content in Excel or a comma separated list? If so, have you attemped to copy and then paste into Arbortext Editor using Edit > Paste Excel?

See Arbortext Help Center topic "Importing Excel tables".

Hi,

I was not using Service Information Manager. Now I have started using SIM approach which has solved my problem. Thanks for your time and advice.

Sorry for late reply.

We're facing this issue as well, but we do not have Service Information Manager. Whenever we Paste -> Excel, it brings over a blank table. All of the table dimensions are maintained from the Excel spreadsheet, but none of the content carries over.

Is there any way to bring the content over as well as the cell/table dimensions?
