Quantity of Same Parts 1

[Creigbm]

I am trying to create a custom BOM macro that displays the number of each part. For example, I have an assembly with 10 parts total, but there are 3 parts named XXX and 7 parts named YYY. How do I get SW to output these numbers (if possible). Thanks.

Check out the Assembly BOM macro on Lennys site. If it is not what you are looking for it will give you some help in figuring it out.

Dear Creigbm,

Do you put a specificed properties each part configuration?
If do you put, no problems because do you want assign this specificed value to a BOM.

FerSW,

A lot of models we create only have one configuration. It would at to the difficulty here if I has more than one config. I am working my way through the macro aamoroso recommended so hopefully that will work. I was hoping for a simple modeldoc2.GetPartQty
