Multi-BOM Management general functionality > Visualizing structures

Permanently reposition one or more items

Use this method to permanently reposition the BOM. The transformations are saved in the database.

Do one of the following:

  • Save using the Persist Transformation of Selected Objects button by doing one of the following:

Reposition the part using Lifecycle Viewer repositioning capabilities and then click .

Select either the BOM line that you repositioned or the top line of the structure if you reposition several objects and click in the Graphics view toolbar.

Teamcenter saves the temporary transformation in the structure.

  • Save using the menu command.

Select the appropriate line in the BOM.

Choose Graphics→Transformation→Persistent Transformation.

Use the Persistent Transformation dialog box controls to move and rotate the selected items. The Persistent Transformation dialog box provides the same options and commands as the Lifecycle Viewer Part Transformation dialog box.

Note

The new position is saved in the database but it has no effect on positioning in the CAD part.

Scale transformations are not saved.
