Hi Angela,

I can reproduce this error on my local instance of 11.0 SP15. Looking through our internal list of issues, it seems that this is behavior that is seen before and is still being scheduled to be fixed. 

In the meantime, I think your suggestion of adding an onAfterCopy method to the parent ItemType is the best workaround for now.

There are a few other alternatives such as making this counter property a federated property and calculating it each time a Part BOM is retrieved from the database. While this would resolve the issue you're seeing, it would also slow down the process of opening and editing parts to the extra time needed for that calculation.
