Material Existence Check

The Connector for Cadence OrCAD includes a command that checks if a material exists in 3DEXPERIENCE.

The command triggers a document search that uses specific criteria defined by a form to query 3DEXPERIENCE. The search returns component information based on the selected table. The input to the criteria is a list of objects, mainly the part number.

As with other forms, you can configure this form and build more precise queries (for example, pattern matching, stacked searches, and so on). You can also define complex scenarios such as retrieving the latest released object or retrieving objects based on configured states. The Connector for Cadence OrCAD uses the specified form and criteria that defines search criteria for exactly one object.

For detailed information about building queries, see MQL Command Reference: Common Clauses: Where Clause.
