Hello Chris,
awaiting for you answers on the query below.
Is there any way to check Indenture level for BOM structure through query which can use to create report or using the OOTB report, is there any way to automate the identure levels for different assemblies with varying BOM levels.
Please let me know.
Thanks,
Mithun
Hi Mithun,
I took another look at the stylesheet of the multilevel BOM report, and it seems I had forgotten about the hard-coded indenture levels.
I'm not aware of an easy way to automate this indenture level; however, I'm also not very familiar with XSLT which is what the stylesheet is written in. It's possible that the XSLT language supports some way to count the number of levels of the item coming in and use that result to dynamically set the indenture levels.

Thanks Chris for the quick response, if you have some sample about the XSLT that you mentioned can you please share that and one more thing is it possible to have the Export to Excel functionality on the BOM structure tab itself, I have seen this feature on Aras 12 but we are using aras 11 SP12. I had reached out to Aras support regarding this, they didn't had a specific patch for that. My question is would it possible to use the OOTB export to excel feature and add up to the BOM strutcture tab, this will also help my requirement.
Please advise.
Thanks,
Mithun
I don't have any samples of the XSLT myself, but there's a lot of resources available online.
In regards to your second question, it would require significant effort to backport that functionality from 12.0 to 11.0. If you want to attempt this, I'd recommend posting another question in the Development forums to see if anyone else in the community has tried something like this.
