Announcement
August 27, 2015
Posted on August 27, 2015 by Synergis Applications Consultant Dave Breiner
You have an assembly containing several sub-assemblies. You would like to create a drawing of one of the sub-assemblies with a parts list for that sub-assembly.
To show how to accomplish this I will use an assembly of a CNC router table and I would like to isolate the stand under the table so I can get a parts list and build it separately.
First, I will create a View Representation of the STAND.
In my drawing, I will use this View Representation (STAND) to create the drawing view.
Note the check mark in the illustration below.
When checked, the drawing will be associative to the model and stay up to date with any changes. Leave this unchecked if you want to isolate this view from any further updates.
Place your views as needed.
When you are to place a parts list in the drawing, you will place the full assembly parts list first then edit the list.
Select the parts list and right click. Select Edit Parts List from the menu.
Select the Filter icon. Next, I am going to select the Assembly View Representation from the list. I then select my STAND View Representation from the list.
After making you selection, select OK to finish.
Before you leave the Part List editor, you have the option, if needed, to Renumber Items then Override to BOM. In most cases this will not be needed. Select OK to finish.
The parts list will now contain only the parts shown in this View Representation.
Till Later,
Dave Breiner
