Administering CAD BOM and part BOM alignments
Use the CBA 2.0 to CBA 3.0 me_migrate_design_ebom migration utility
In Teamcenter 13.2 and above, you can use the CAD-BOM Alignment (CBA) utility to migrate CBA 2.0 design or CAD bill of material (BOM) and part BOM alignment to the new CBA 3.0 CAD part alignment model, which is publish-linked based. After you migrate from CBA 2.0 to 3.0, you can view the CAD BOM and part BOM side by side in Active Workspace to review the alignment of parts and visualize the structures.
The following migration cases are supported:
Heavy alignment
Light alignment
Multiple design (CAD) to one-part alignment (ND1P)
Deformed parts (override jts and override transforms)
CAD BOM←CBA 2.0→EBOM→MBOM
CAD BOM←CBA 3.0→EBOM→MBOM
The following preference values must be set before running the me_migrate_design_ebom utility:
MEDesignToBom_Enabled=
falseFND0_ENABLE_DESIGN_BOM_ENGINEERING_BOM_ALIGNMENT=
true
For details on the me_migrate_design_ebom utility, use the -h command.
