If statement in Part list
(OP)
Hi,
it's possible to have a column in the part list like if description=empty then part_number ?

If part_type == Bulk_item, Qty = 'AR'
I realize that NX does not have the part_type designation that is in a Pro/Engineer file, put it does provide a useful means of changing the qty from 1 to AR (As Required) for things like sealant, Loctite and paint.
Haven't played with NX BOMs in a few years, but is there a method to do this?

looslib,
In the component properties, you can change the quantity type from "number" to "as-required". You can also mark a component as "non-geometric".

RE: If statement in Part list
Below is my issue statement. which is similar to you.
e.g.
Assembly items
1. L-Angle 3x2 ; Stock# 12345 ; Length 8in ; UOM inch
2. L-Angle 3x2 ; Stock# 12345 ; Length 10in ; UOM inch
3. L-Angle 5x3 ; Stock# 12346 ; Length 15in ; UOM inch
4. L-Angle 5x3 ; Stock# 12346 ; Length 20in ; UOM inch
5. Bolt 3/8 x 1.5 ; Stock #12347 ; UOM EA (i.e. each)
Desired output:
QTY - UOM - Description - Stock# - ITEM#
18 - inch - L-Angle 3x2 - 12345 - 1
25 - inch - L-Angle 5x3 - 12346 - 2
1 - EA - Bolt 3/8 x 1.5 - 12347 - 3
Thanks in advance

Yogeesh,
This approach probably won't work for your situation. I think that your question is significantly different than Cubalibre00's, or perhaps I have not understood it properly...

RE: If statement in Part list
my original question is on part list, because components are in read only, we are under PDM, so expression can't be added on components.
Thank you...

You said that you have done some exercises in NX BOM, could you share the same. I am trying to see whether any conditional formattinf is possible in NX parts list...
