Hello
I have a bug on SmartBom to retrieve configuration-specific properties.
I use myCADtools 2024 SP0.0.
I created different types of part files " COM " = trade, " PLD " = custom made part, etc. In a folder, I created 2 files per type of part: 1 file with only 1 configuration, and 1 file with 2 configurations. That is to say, I have 1 COM file with 1 configuration, 1 COM file with 2 configurations, 1 PLD file with 1 configuration, 1 PLD file with 2 configurations, etc.
I configured SmartBom to create a bill of materials named " PIE_COM " with these options:
- Selected component: " ..." »
- Table Template: Automatically Retrieve All Properties
- Type of documents to be processed: documents
- Property value: Configuration-specific properties
- Property value for folders: Retrieve properties for all configurations
I added an " AND " condition: if a property exists with a given value
- Property Name: " MPN - File Type"
- Property Value: " COM "
When I go back to the " BOM creation" tab and click on " Apply ", I have all the parts that are listed: those of type " COM " and the others. In my eyes, this does not seem normal to me, since I am asking that only the " COM " type pieces be brought up. But I might be setting something up the wrong way.
In addition, the file names are sometimes incorrect. The " _1 " is sometimes forgotten at the end of file names. Whereas in Windows Explorer, my files all end with " _1 ".
Here are some images of SmartBom's settings and results.
Can you help me see more clearly? Is it a SmartBom bug?
Thank you.
