Renumber BOM iLogic/API question

[mdavis22569]

I'm looking to see if anyone has done Ilogic 

Where I could have a pop up ...or something that would allow me to change the Structuring BOM numbers

Right now when I make my Parts List/BOM ..

it's like this:

However we need to have it start value at 10 and do it in increments of 10

as we're doing our assemblies it's common for it to change and reset back to 1 ...so I'm looking at how to set up an ilogic so I can input those values in quickly and it updates, vs making a Parts List, going into the BOM, going to the structured tab and inputting in the values everytime.

Mike

thanks,

Mike

Hi mdavis22569,

This should do it:

oBOMView = ThisDoc.Document.ComponentDefinition.BOM.BOMViews.Item("Structured")
Call oBOMView.Renumber(10, 10)

I hope this helps.
Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,

Thank you @Curtis_Waguespack worked great ... 

Question is there a change I can do to it ..so it can work also on the IDW side as a 2nd option?   

Thank you too!!! I greatly appreciate it!

You're quite welcome!

Here's a version that you can run from the drawing:

'define the model (gets the first model in the drawing, if there is more than 1)
oModelDoc = ThisDrawing.ModelDocument

'get the structured BOM view
oBOMView = oModelDoc.ComponentDefinition.BOM.BOMViews.​Item("Structured")

'renumber the BOM
Call oBOMView.Renumber(10, 10)

'update the drawing (parts list, balloons, etc.)
