Show or hide the target MBOM subassembly while working with background parts

You can show or hide the target manufacturing bill of materials (MBOM) subassembly in the Viewer panel while you work with background parts in the Background Parts Management page.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, verify that:

• Your work package has an engineering bill of materials (EBOM) associated to it.

• You have assigned objects as background parts in the work package.

Procedure

1. Open an existing work package, or create one and open it, and then navigate to the Background Parts Management page.

2. Load the engineering bill of materials (EBOM) that you want to work with and in the Assigned Assemblies for Background Parts panel, click Show in 3D viewer .

Teamcenter Easy Plan displays the assigned assemblies for background parts in the 3D viewer. Teamcenter Easy Plan synchronizes the display between the 3D viewer and the EBOM. If you select an item in the 3D viewer, Teamcenter Easy Plan highlights that item in the EBOM. If you select an item in the EBOM, Teamcenter Easy Plan highlights that item in the 3D viewer.

3. (Optional) Click Hide in 3D viewer to hide the assigned assemblies for background parts.

4. In the 3D viewer, click Show Target Assembly to view the target MBOM assembly.

Teamcenter Easy Plan displays the target MBOM subassembly in the 3D viewer. Teamcenter Easy Plan shows the background parts as transparent images, and shows the target MBOM subassembly parts in full color so that you can quickly distinguish between them in the viewer.

5. (Optional) Click Hide Target Assembly to stop displaying the target MBOM assembly in the 3D viewer.
