To Add New Fields to the Isogen BOM:
1. Using the AutoPLANT Script Editor open the file ..Bentley\PLANT XM\XCHG\PCF\OPCFHDR.EBS.
2. Search for the comment '// Function to write a component's item code and add the following at the end of the list of Dim statements:
Dim rating As String
Dim schedule As String
3. Search for the '// Redirect output to MDF file add the following three lines after the last nStat statement:
nStat = at_Component_getString(rating, compID,"RATING")
nStat = at_XchgWriteText("RATING ")
nStat = at_XchgWritelnText(rating)
4. To add more fields to the Isogen Material List repeat the three lines above for the next item:
nStat = at_Component_getString(schedule, compID, "SCHEDULE")
nStat = at_XchgWriteText("SCHEDULE ")
nStat = at_XchgWritelnText(schedule)
5. To display the two new fields in the Material List add Text Type records -80 and -81 to the STYLE2-DATA-ITEMS section of the Material Definition File (.MLD). In the example below, Text Type -80 corresponds to Rating and Text Type -81 corresponds to Schedule. Please pay close attention to the start column and justification of the Data-Items and Column Headings. The vertical bar on the right determines the location of the divider between the Material List and the drawing.
