Sheet specific properties in a multi-sheet drawing?

Sheet specific properties in a multi-sheet drawing?

Sheet specific properties in a multi-sheet drawing?

(OP)
Does any one know how to do this ?   We create some drawings of models with parts inside parts using multi-sheet drawings.  Sheet 1 is the master weldment drawing where sheet 2 may be a laser cut weld in part.  If for example I need qty 1 of the main drawing but need 2 of the sheet 2 laser cuts ... the "quantity" property we have is a drawing property and if I put a "1" in as this property is comes up on all sheet of the drawing file.

Have the drawing QTY note linked to a QTY property in the part model.

-or-

Use the Cut List as the BOM to show the qty's needed (same as an assy BOM).

-or-

Just add a QTY to the drawing sheet.

CorBlimeyLimey, when you say just add a qty to the drawing sheet, do you mean type the quantity manually as a note ?
