Calculate Assembly Mass when Custom User Values exist

I have programmed all parts & assemblies to have a custom property for mass, which reads the document iproperty for mass & uses it.

 

I have some items (Parts & Assemblies) which have a custom user value for mass, which I manually enter.  In order to use this, I also have a custom parameter which must be set to TRUE for the manual mass value to be used. 

 

Either the iproperty or the custom value for mass is used, subject to the state of the parameter.

 

Is there a way to force any assembly into which such items are placed to look for this custom parameter & where TRUE, use the custom mass value & what would be the best way to call it (a trigger?).
