2013- Custom CC Base Quantity = Each

[karthur1]

It looks like by default, the CC structural parts have the Base Quantity set to "G_L".  I guess this is to make it easy to tally the total length of the sections used in an assembly.  In my custom CC, I would like to have the Base Quantity as "Each" like my non-CC parts. 

It is PITA to have to edit each CC member and change this.

Don't bother, change to a parts list that uses 'Item Qty' instead of 'Qty' and you never have to think about that again.

Good Luck, Paul

Paul,

Thanks... that should work.

I've the same problem in the bom quantity.

I tried to replace Qty with item-Qty but I found a bug:

If you use structured bom and open an assembly tree and hide leaving visible only the parts with "item-Qty" these will not be multiplied by the correct amount.

what is the problem and how can I fix it?

Thanks
