Mapping property and attribute groups between design elements and BOM lines

When assigning a design element into a manufacturing structure, some of the properties of the design element are copied into the new BOM line. The mapping of design element properties to BOM line properties is based on the values of the Cpd0DEToBOMPropertyMapping global constant in the Business Modeler IDE. This constant has the following format:

BOM-line-property:design-element-property

For example:

• Bl_absolute_transform:DE_absolute_transform

• Bl_effectivity:DE_effectivity

• Bl_note_type1:DE_custom_attribute1

The selection of properties that are carried forward during the assign process is specified in the Cpd0DEPropertiesForMBOM global constant. The value of this constant consists of a list of design element properties, for example:

DE_absolute_transform DE_effectivity DE_custom_attribute1

The properties that are carried forward to the BOM line are the properties that are available for propagation after running an accountability check.

Additionally, if the design element has an associated attribute group, these attributes are copied to a designated form on the BOM line. The mapping between attribute group and form type is specified in the Cpd0DEAttrGroupTypeToFormType global constant. This constant has the following format:

attribute-group:form-type

For example:

EngAttributes:FormEngAttributes

Caution

You should only map one attribute group to one form. Mapping multiple attribute groups to one form results in errors in the partial match report of the accountability check.
