Hi Community, We created a new part object, and hope that the new part object have the same multil-level BOM functions as the OOTB part object. I added "Part Multi-level BOM" relationship type to t...

    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，

    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!

    Best,

    Miranda

        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,
