How to add the part multi-level BOM functions to a new part object type

Hi AJ,

Many thanks for your information. 
We are very green hand of Aras system. If you can provide more detailed instructions or guidance, that will be great helpful for us. We are using Release 16 Build 14.0.2.33605.

Thanks in advance.

Hi AJ，

I referenced the blog of  An Introduction to Query Builder and Tree Grid View | Aras, and get the multi-level BOM. The BOM levels and properties are correct, but the structure display looks very strange as the extra relationship levels were displayed. Could you tell me how to remove these redundancy levels?  

Thanks in advance!

Hi Miranda,

This behavior is expected, assuming you configured your tree grid view this way. I think there are two options to remove the intermediary nodes. You can either remove them from your Tree Grid View by Unmapping them:

Or you can do what the PE_BomStructure TGV does and combine the elements. Here's a different blog on how to combine your elements to achieve your goals: Advanced Tree Grid View Topics

Hi AJ,

Many thanks for your information. We removed the intermediary nodes now. However we found another one big issue, the quantity displayed in the multi-BOM view is not the part quantities used by it's parent. What should I do to display the correct BOM quantities？

Thanks,

Miranda

Hi AJ,

Additional remarks,   if I follow An Introduction to Query Builder and Tree Grid View | Aras guid, it only display the part's properties, and the BOM properties cannot be displayed. However, the BOM quantities is the BOM properties, not part's properties. How to display BOM quantities in the multi-level BOM veiw?

Thanks,

Miranda

Hi Miranda,

If you merge the part/bom Items like in PE_BomStructure, you should be able to query both Part and BOM Data: 

Could you please post a picture of your query/TGV definition so I can see what it looks like.

Hi AJ,

Yes, we can get the BOM quantities now. 

Many thanks for your support!
