  Hi Duygu
  
  Step 1: Create a list name Subclass
  
  Step 2: In Filter Value tab in Subclass list, add label, name and filter value (Example : Name: Resistor Subclass Label Resistor Subclass Filter Value : Resistor)
  
  Step 3: Create a property named Subclass in Part item type with data type Filter List. Select data source as Subclass list and Pattern as Classification
  
  Step 4: Save, unlock and close the Item Type
  
  Step 5: Open Part form and add the Subclass field
  
  Step 6: Save, unlock and close the form
  
  If you want to use different data source other than classification, then you need to create a property (in this case, component with data source list and give it as pattern for subclass)
  
  Thanks

    thank you very much,
    
    I have done the same thing before but it did not work here. The list does not come to the subclass field in the Part instance. I don't know why.
