NX: Map CAD Assembly Attribute to Usage Link Attribute
Product: Windchill Workgroup Manager for NX
Release: 11.0 F000
Benefit
Windchill Workgroup Manager for NX allows exposing Line Numbers and/or Find Numbers from NX designs into the engineering BOM in Windchill as reference designators, which can be transferred to downstream business applications such as ERP. Support for mapping NX assembly component attributes to EPM Document Usage Link attributes helps the overall process for traceability of components through the product life cycle from design to manufacturing.
Additional Details
The value of the attribute reads from the Instance context. The value is taken if it was set at the component level of the direct parent assembly that is saved, or at the part level. The NX Attribute applied to the Instance in the assembly is mapped to the Usage Attribute having the same name in the Windchill CAD structure. Attribute Mapping is used to map the NX Attribute applied to the Instance in the assembly to the Usage Attribute in the Windchill CAD structure.
