This Functionality is very important to have the ability to use MBD in assembly-lines/assembly-stations without drawings. Currently the drawing is still necessary because of the BOM-Table and BOM-Balloons. Therefore this request is also affecting Creo View, which should also support this functionality by using the pvs/pvz-export.
Maybe a splitted view with the Model on one side and the BOM-Table on the other side can rout to a useful solution.
BTW: we use Component-parameters with our BOM-Tool (Toolkit) to save the position-numbers or other parameters permanently to the model. The Component-parameters can be used by notes with the syntax &POSITION:att_cmp, but unfortunately not for custom-symbols.
Complementary operations are also needed: exclude from BOM, Phantom and envelopevcomponents, since not all items in the assembly are included in the production process.
PTC Please do this, I have been struggling with Manufacturing Engineers complaining to me as I'm the only MBD certified engineer at my facility. I am currently thinking of ways to create a custom symbol, maybe by creating a custom parameter that is pulled from Windchill, but if PTC would just create repeat regions in MBD and add the table tab it would be soooooo much easier and much appreciated.
