Part Section

The Part section of the bom-settings.ini file defines settings for the part filter and part form.

This page discusses:

Part Filter Settings

Display Name Attribute Name Description Allowed Values
Enable Ignore EDA Parts PartIgnoreEDAPart The user has the possibility to ignore parts coming in from the EDA BOM extraction process by defining regular expressions. This might be very useful to ignore part entries like Testpoints, DNI Parts etc. which are required in the CAD Design itself but have no meaningful representation in the PLM Side.
  • true
  • false
Default: true
Regular Expression PartIgnoreEDAPartRegExp

Semicolon-separated regular expressions used when the above attribute is set to true.

For example, this regular expression partNo=^OA.*$;partNo=^TESTP.*$;partNo=^IGNORE.*$ indicates that all parts starting with OA, TESTP and IGNORE will be ignored for BOM creation.

You can use these attributes as part of the regular expression:

Default:

partNo=^TP.*$;partNo=^TESTP.*$;partNo=^IGNORE.*$

Value Description
partNo Part Number

Part Form settings

Display Name Attribute Name Description Allowed Values
Part Creation PartCreationForm Defines the webform used to create missing parts in the 3DEXPERIENCE. Default: ECAD-CR5000-Part-AutoCreateForm
Part Existence check PartExistenceCheck Defines the webform used to check the existence of the parts in the 3DEXPERIENCE. The Connector queries 3DEXPERIENCE for the existence of the part based on selected webform which specifies the state of the part for example, when the user selects Latest Released Revision, then it checks for all the assembly parts with the latest revision in the released state. Default: ECAD-Part-FindLatestReleased or ECAD-Part-FindLatestRev
- PartExistenceCheckKnownRev In case that the revision of the Part is known then existence check is carried out for the exact Type, Name and Revision. Default: ECAD-CR5000-PartExistenceCheck
EBOM Relationship PartSpecRelationship Defines the form used to create a relationship between parts i.e.; create an EBOM connection between the component and its parent component Default: ECAD-BOM-RelationshipForm
