To Create a BOM Parameter
Enter Creo Parametric relations in a text file named param_relations.txt.
The relations are added to the profile or element during the assembly process. The required parameters are therefore included in the part as a combination of the six system parameter values, as shown in the following example, using the standard profile relation file (param_relations.txt in the parts\profiles subdirectory):
NAMING = BUW_NAME
DESIGNATION = BUW_TYPE + " " + BUW_SIZE + " x " + BUW_LENGTH_STR
LENGTH = BUW_LENGTH
During assembly, the parameters are translated and the relation file is added. The following BOM parameters appear in the part:
NAMING = "ANGLE"
DESCRIPTION = "L" +" " + "4 x 4 x 1/2" + " x " + "50" = "L 4 x 4 x 1/2 x 50"
LENGTH = 50
