Finding Bom Headers

[Fadel]

Hello All,

This is not a question just somethinh I want to share maybe someone will need it in the future .

 OOTB we have the  endItem attribute however its doesn't really mean that that part is a BOM header (Not used in other BOMs) and was looking for a way to find these BOM Header Parts .

I could achieve this in a two step manupulation .

First I have defined  a string  alias attribute called whereused to find the parents of a given parts with below mapping : 

masterReference@wt.part.WTPartMaster~uses@wt.part.WTPartUsageLink~usedBy^wt.part.WTPart~number 

Then a second step we can define a boolean calculated attribute  isBomHeader with formula : isNull(whereused) 

We can now run a report find the BomHeaders : 

Happy new Year :

By BOM Header, you mean top level assemblies? In other words, Parts that are not used anywhere else? Does this also take into account if the Part itself has components? I would think both would need to be true. Reply to close out this thread and mark complete.

I does not  look if is it has component or not ,just that the part is not used anywhere
