How to work with units 'meter' in the part structure and combining this with Creo Parametric?

Hello

for the "typical" cable and electrical harness case (and for each case where you've got potentialy a "flexible" part, but that you can not modelize as a single 3D parametric flexible part in proE).

You can link the different "form" CAD part with a "image link" or "contributing image link" to the same WTPart. For example:

-your flat electrical harness as "owner" link to the WTpart

-your harness with a first routing

-your harness with a second routing

etc ....

the image links permits to link different CAD 3D model, that represent the same WTpart (but different geometry because of the flexible nature and how their are mount in your product). But they will update correctly the quantity in the WTPart BOM. But which quantity ea "each"

In your case, as you change the lengh of your cable, you can use the above methodology. But you are more in the case of a eBOM to mBOM transformation.

if In the CAD assy, use 2 cad parts to represent your 2 cables. Link them as image link. You will have a WTpart eBOM with quantity = 2

You will then need to change view of your parent WTpart to "manufacturing" (in MPMLink), then split quantity and update unit to set 1 meter and 1.5 meter ....

The negative point is that the eBOM/mBOM comparator in MPMlink will show you difference because units are different in the 2 BOMs ...
