Identify the profiles drilled in a frame for export step

Hello,

I would like to create a rule Ilogic to export all the parts of a frame in step format on the fly in order to send my order for cutting. The problem I'm having is that I can't identify the drilled parts in my BOM. I can see that when I display the weight of my parts, it tells me that the value is variable. So for two parts of the same length but one drilled and the other not, I can't manage to split them in my BOM into two different parts. Do you have any ideas for separating them?

Thank you in advance

Hi @BenjaCmoi .

The BOM has the ability to combine rows of components if they have a common Part Number value. Accordingly, if these 2 (or more) components will have different other properties then they will be marked *Varies*.
A better way would be to have different designations for them in the Part Number property. In the following article, the ways to solve this issue are well described.
Good luck!
