Query in regards to a BOM in a Creo drawing

Hello,

I have a Creo 2.0 drawing in which a BOM is defined for an assembly. The BOM has components stated from Sl# 01 to Sl# 20. We need to change the serial numbering now from Sl# 600 to SL# 620 for the same drawing.

Is there any way of acheiving this. Request you to revert.

Best regards,

Simha

Please note that, the BOM generated is an auto generated BOM and is not a manually entered BOM.

You probably need to create a custom repeat region where you convert the find number by adding 600 (if numeric) or prefixing a 6 (if string).

You can always make a simple table that does not auto-populate.  I still find this easier in most cases.

Here's how I would do it:  I would create a BOM relation (repeat region relation) that adds 600 to the original index value, and then display the new value in the BOM:

The report parameters in this table are:

&rpt.index

&rpt.rel.NEWNUM

&asm.mbr.name

&rpt.qty

You can delete the first column after you get this going.

    There you go!    I knew it could be done, just didn't know how exactly.  Thanks JLG!
