Part Number Manipulation in BOM

[MYR]

I have used the forum in the past but this is the first time posting.

I am trying to find a way to manipulate my BOM table using NX8.5. I have legacy parts, that when the company migrated to a global teamcenter the parts had prefix added. For example PX-12345 has become PR_PX12345. Is there a way to get the number to show as PX-12345 in a BOM table without adding a parameter to the part itself. The parts are secured and can not be modified. I have been experimenting with replacestring() but I am not having any luck. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Use the file name as the part number but you will be stuck with the underscore.

That's all I've got if you can't modify the the part to add the attribute you need.

Making use of the Part Name I think in below posting you can find your solution.

Should be easy to extract the last part of the name with this.
