Import part family templates when you use custom item IDs

By default, the Manufacturing Resource Library installer creates items that are associated with the part family template that have the same ID as the name of the part family template. If your company uses custom IDs, you cannot use the installer to import the part family templates. You must import them using scripts delivered with the software kit.

Procedure

1. Locate the scripts in the following directory:advanced_installations\resource_management\MRL\PartFamilyTemplates

2. Rename the part family templates located in the Parts subdirectory to reflect your custom item IDs.

3. Adjust the PFT_3_Sample_TC101_assign_pfts.bat script to reflect the new IDs.

4. Adjust the PFT_MRL_import_one_pft.bat script and specify the correct user, password, and group.

5. Run the PFT_0_MRL_PartFamily_Templates.bat script to install the part family templates with the new IDs.
