Configuring Structure Manager

Configure the structure line title format

Procedure Add the structure (BOM) line title column to the list of displayed columns in Structure Manager, by choosing View→Properties and selecting it from the list of available columns. Initially, the BOM Line Title column displays the same information displayed in the Structure Manager tree (BOM Line). Choose Edit→Options. Teamcenter displays the Options dialog box. Click the Product Structure node in the Options tree. Teamcenter displays the options in the right pane of the window. From the BOM Line Title format for Items of type list, choose the item type for which you are defining the structure (BOM) line title format. Enter a combination of fixed text and other structure line properties in the text field, for example: Copy $bl_item_item_id, with name $bl_item_object_name of type $bl_item_object_type and find number $bl_find_no

Note If you enter an invalid property name, for example, $my_missing_property, Teamcenter does not display an error; rather it displays the text without the dollar sign ($). The $string entries are structure line property names that act as substitution points when populating the cells in the Structure Manager columns. Property names are listed in the bom_attr.h file. Click OK. Teamcenter closes the Options dialog box. Refresh the Structure Manager window to apply the title format change.
