Invertor 2016, Why the Iproperties "stock number" is not in the part list column chooser

Maybe you should upgrade.  It's here in 2018.

Intel i7-6700 @ 3.41ghz
nVidia GTS 250 - 1 GB

lol, i'm not working with 2016 by choice ;(

[Cadmanto]

I get it.  A lot of us aren't working in the versions by our choice. 

At least you know it is there when you do upgrade.

Windows 10 x64 -16GB Ram
Intel i7-6700 @ 3.41ghz
nVidia GTS 250 - 1 GB

From what I remember that should be there..

Stock number has been around for a long time (if not from the start) of Inventor..

Have you installed all available updates for your version?

[Cadmanto]

If you don't still see stock number, have you tried creating a custom property column then going and searching for it?

yes i have all update til the last with all the bugs that come with it

There are two possible reasons:

1. It's already in the Parts List, possibly under a different name (the selected columns show the column heading name, not necessarily the iProperty name)
2. Your screen shot shows some properties with names that look French to me; is it possible that the French for Stock Number (Numéro de Stock?) is somewhere else in the list?

that is what i don't want to do, a "work around" because i will need to do it with all old parts, just because we need to add a new column in the part list.

what you see in the picture i sent, is all properties showing with the craeted custum prop.

we can not change name of design tracking prop.

Post another shot of the Column Chooser dialog, showing both sides (and please embed it using the Photos button instead of attaching it).  The names that appear on the right side, the selected properties, are the names of the column headings, not the iProperty names.  Those column headings default to the property name, but if they're changed (via Format Column), the changed name is what shows up in the Column Chooser.  One of those selected properties is probably the Stock Number property.

what you say is tru for user properties, but "stock number" supose to be their when we choose design tracking prop. instead of all prop.

Hi! It looks like you are using non-English Inventor or the drawing was originally created on a non-English version. "STOCK NUMBER" might be translated to something else.

Many thanks!

It's an all english Inventor with some custom properties made in french

[SBix26]

Only thing I can think of is to go through each column and use Format Column to find out what iProperty each one is using.  In my example below, the Stock Number property is used by the column headed Mfg #, and that is what is shown in the Column Chooser.
