How To Import and Export an sBOM XML File
To Import and Apply an sBOM XML File
Use one of these methods to import an sBOM XML file into Creo Illustrate and apply it to the illustration sBOM.
Import a PVZ file and an sBOM XML file with same name, in same folder. For example, if the folder contains rocket.pvz, Creo Illustrate looks for rocket.xml in the same folder. If it finds a valid rocket.xml file , it applies it to the illustration sBOM.
If Creo Illustrate is connected to Windchill, import a Windchill GDD with primary PVZ that has an “XML companion file” attachment. If the XML companion file is a valid, Creo Illustrate applies it to the illustration sBOM.
In Creo Illustrate sBOM Edit mode, on the Home tab, click Import. In the Import File dialog box, type or select the sBOM XML file to import and click Open.
To Export an sBOM XML File
In Creo Illustrate sBOM Edit mode, on the Home tab, click Export. In the Export sBOM Structure dialog box, type or select an XML file name and then click Save. You can edit the exported sBOM XML file and reimport it.
