Background
All components classes has their own Item Code value in ecschema, by which component's PARTID numbers are assigned. Some components are very identical and because of this Item Code value, they are grouped together. This value can be edited by adding additional Properties or Attributes, by which components will be assigned with different PARTID numbers.
In this example user had a requirement to list all OWNER Group Weld Neck Flanges separately.
Steps to Accomplish
To assign different PARTID's for the identical Flanges, we need to have a Property, which differs them. All Items in AutoPLANT has unique COMP_ID property, which can be used for WELD_NECK_FLANGE PARTID assignment.
COMP_ID in ecshema is mapped with GUID property.
- Open OpenPlant_3D ecschema, which you can find under this path
C:\ProgramData\Bentley\Plant V8i\Bentley Plant V8i Projects\SAMPLE_MMETRIC\Config\OpenPlant\schemas - Supplement it with OpenPlant_3D_Supplemental_Isometrics_Isoextractor ecschema, which you can find under this path
C:\ProgramData\Bentley\Plant V8i\Bentley Plant V8i Projects\SAMPLE_MMETRIC\Config\OpenPlant\schemas - Select Weld Neck Flange class and find Isometric Component custom attribute
- Edit Item Code value by adding GUID property at the end of value:
this.GetClass().Name & IM.GetPort("1","ECX_SIZE") & IM.GetPort("2","ECX_SIZE") & this.CODE & this.STANDARD & this.MATERIAL & this.RATING & this.GUID - Generate ISO via OPIM and verify the results
