Use Cases: Generate Downstream Structure
The following use cases provide you with an insight into the working of Generate Downstream Structure action in BOM Transformer. Apply the restructuring rules, mentioned in the use cases, in the associativity.properties.xconf file located in Windchill/codebase/com/ptc/core/foundation/associativity.
• Use Case 1: Generate a Downstream Structure Based on the Part Attribute
• Use Case 2: Generate a Downstream Structure Based on the Part Usage Attribute
• Use Case 3: Generate a Downstream Structure By Mapping Multiple Part Usage Attributes
• Use Case 4: No BOM Transformation Based on the Part Type
• Use Case 5: Generate a Downstream Structure With a Specific Structure Not Traversed Based on the Part
• Use Case 6: Generate a Downstream Structure by Mapping Two Different Usage Attributes
• Use Case 7: Generate a Downstream Structure by Skipping a Part Based on the Part Attribute
• Use Case 8: Generate a Downstream Structure by Skipping a Part Based on Two Attributes
• Use Case 9: Generate a Downstream Structure by Skipping a Part Based on Two Attributes
• Use Case 10: Generate a Downstream Structure by Considering Process Plan Allocation
You can use custom usage attributes and custom part attributes in the use cases. Ensure that you update or add the properties accordingly.
