Changing Parts List component attributes
Changing Parts List component attributes
(OP)
I've tried to solve this on my own, and I give!
When I create an assembly, even though I add components in my preferred order, the parts list always reflects a different Item ordering. Apparently, the CALLOUT properties attribute controls this column. When I manually change the values of this attribute, the parts list won't update to reflect the changes, nor are the new values permanent.
What is the correct way to change the Item ordering of an assembly's basic components?

RE: Changing Parts List component attributes
Now add this column to your parts list but make it zero width (you can do this using the 'Resize' option after selecting the column in the Parts List). Despite the fact that you cannot see this column, it can still be used to control the 'sorting' of the Parts List note.

RE: Changing Parts List component attributes
Here's how ...
* Make sure you do not have the assembly open.
* Within your assembly navigate to the "BOMView Revision" object.
(The relevant icon has a blue, green and pink square connected by 'flow-chart' lines)
* Double click this to open in PSE.
(or right click > send to > PSE)
* Then change the "Sequence No." to reflect your preferred order of parts.
* Save
* Open the assembly
This is probably the simplest way IMHO but please shout if someone see's a problem with doing this!

* Within TEAMCENTER, navigate to the "BOMView Revision" object in your assembly.
ps ... can you edit a 'submitted' post?
