BOM Plate Description

 

When we send our plates to sheets, it puts the plate name in the BOM using the Name token.  However, the name token for plate shows the thickness, width and length.  

 

Is there anyway to remove the length from the description?

Hello,

You can change the name of the plates using Management Tools application.

Follow this steps:

  • Open Management Tools (MT) application
  • Open the page Defaults
  • Open the category Plate / sub-category General
  • Search for the option Plate name
  • Change the rule to create the plate name --> delete the token %Length
  • Open a new session of AS

Please find attached a picture with the option from MT.

 

Please let me now if this is what you are looking for.

 

Best regards,
Emy
