Toolbox Description not showing in BOM

Toolbox Description not showing in BOM

Toolbox Description not showing in BOM

(OP)
We use a specific BOM that uses  Item,Quantity,partnum(custom property),and partdescription(custom property).
In SW 2007 the toolbox parts used to come into the BOM just fine but now all I get from 2008 is blank entries in my BOM. Anyone else have this problem?

RE: Toolbox Description not showing in BOM

Is your 2008 install looking at the 2007 Toolbox location? Or is it looking at a newly installed 2008 version.

cheers

Yes the common toolbox location on the network drive was repointed.  Did a little reading on the SW site and it seems there are a few SPR that bear resemblance to this issue still unresolved.
