Combining attributes in assembly tree?

I have some attributes from my PDM System I want to see in the assembly tree.
Today I can set to view just a single attribute defined in “assembly preferences.”

I am looking for an option to see not only one attribute but a combination of different attributes of it.
For example, the properties Doc_Title and ERP_ID

Is there a way to combine it?

Thank you

If you have an attribute , you can add a new column to the assembly navigator that displays this attribute.
Right -click in the "white space" of the assembly navigator, and either "Columns- configure" or "Properties"
In the columns -configure option you type in the attribute title in thar "white field" ( mark in the list above where you waant the new column).
Or, you can click the "Attribute column selector" and click-select the attribute to display.

Was this the response to the question ? Or do you want to combine several attributes into a single string ?
This can be done also but requires a little more work.

The more you know about a subject, the more you know how little you know about that subject.
 
Thank you for the answers.
I think your suggested way to use the column works best for me.

Now I can see in NX the same information as “Status” or “Revision” I have in PDM
