BOM Item Numbers

meiel_m — Sun, 20 Feb 2022 16:55:35 GMT

Hello, does anyone knows how to propagate or sync item number overrides from a parent assembly to subassemblies in Inventor?

I revised the item numbers in a parent assembly since I can see all parts from multiple subassemblies, but when I open any subassembly the item numbers are unchanged.

You should modify manually all rows.

This video maybe can help to you.

Hi Meiel, I don't believe you can. The item numbers are stored in the top level assembly and nowhere else.

In the past I had had this issue and I:

Made a custom iProperty for item numbers.

Selected all item numbers and copy pasted them into this custom iProperty in the BOM window.

When I opened sub assemblies I had access to the custom iProperty and I could copy paste them back.

This is a manual process though and won't update.
