John, I tried to spread out the cell a little farther and that does not work either. The values that are coming in are 444# and 107# and the one that is missing is 5#. I can get the 5# to show up briefly by relinking it to the body measurement, but when I update the parts list then it goes back...

jerry1423, I verified the settings with the cells that work and they are both the same.

Hello all, I am having an issue with a BOM in an assembly. I have 3 parts in the assembly and they are all displayed in the BOM correctly ecspt the mass only displays in 2 of the parts. The other part will display the weight until I update the part list and then it changes to [...]. Any...

Updraft, I do not agree with your comment that the assembly drawings and part drawings should be separate. I work with many clients that still use this practice efficiently and they all have pdm systems in place. I may have been off base with the embedded part drawing in the assembly drawing...

I do use the multiple page drawings which is what I am doing in this situation. The first page is my assembly, the second page contains my part information with the blocks.

Maybe not the best use of verbage when I said clutter. I just meant that it seems simple to create a drawing as one would normally do for a part, but then have the option to use that drawing as is or add it to an upper level assembly drawing. As a work around I have created a block with the...

ctopher, The reason I would want to do this is to create a drawing that is fully parametric and will tie directly to the piece part drawing and part. My client does not use a BOM in the assembly drawing. The bom is generated from an SAP system. This drawing that I have shown was created in PTC...

Thanks Scott. I was just working with the hyperlinking, but I do not think that will work either since our client is using a pdm system. I will just create an assembly drawing and import the parts without the use of a separate drawing. I could see where this might be a nice option for companies...

What I want to do is create a part and then create a drawing of that part. Then I want to create an assembly that contains the part. Next I want to create the assembly drawing to show the information needed to create the assembly and finally I want to embed my part drawing into the assembly...

Hi all, I have an opportunity and wanted to throw this out to see if it was possible. My client creates assembly drawings as a multiple page drawing with the last pages containing the piece part prints of all of the parts in the assembly. I have no problem creating a drawing like this, but they...

Thanks for the information Tomas. This did work for the part that I uploaded, but I have 2 other parts with the same issue and this did not work for them. I will keep trying after I reboot my computer.

Toost, I tried that yesterday and it was not the issue. I have uploaded the model for all to see and hopefully we can get something figured out. It is frustrating when things like this happen in a software that I am not totally familiar with. Thanks to everyone who has tried to help...

That checked out good. I did notice that my representation was Exact (Pre-NX 8.5) so I changed it to Exact and tried it again with the same results.

John, I just checked and the layer scheme is consistent between the model and the drawing.

Yes, I am using the master model method. I then select a base view and I have tried different model views. I started by opening my piece part - then switching to Drafting - then I click on "base view" - Placement Method is inferred - Model view is top - scale is 1:8. I then move to the drawing...
