iLogic Rule to match the BOM number & description of 2 different parts

Anonymous
Not applicable

I want to create an iLogic rule which allows me to select a part in an iam file and then select multiple parts after this to match the BOM description & number to.

 

This would be much quicker then opening the BOM & manually updating the part Number & Description to round up similar parts. (I.e mirrored frame generator parts which it does not recognise as the same part)

 

The prompt would be something like;

 

-Select base part

-Select parts to match BOM Number & Description to base part values

-Finish

 

Thanks,

 

Sandy

Without continuously prompting for more selections, InteractionEvents are where you want to start.

If you are fine with a prompt window between each receiving part, or making the program error out, you can use the command manager PICK method.

There will be examples in this file:
