The "Send with Automatic Coding" feature allows you to export a SOLIDWORKS assembly directly to the Visiativ Spare Parts catalog, automatically generating unique codes for each component. This approach eliminates the need for manual entry of part numbers and ensures data consistency between your CAD design and your online spare parts catalog.


Key Benefits

  • Saves time: no need to manually enter components anymore
  • Data consistency: Codes are calculated automatically and are unique
  • Direct publication: The assembly is uploaded and published on Visiativ Spare Parts in just a few clicks






Steps for Use



  1. Launch the tool from the myCADtools toolbar or from the myCADtools application:



 




2. Enter the required information:

  - The file to select (1)

  - The variable/property you use as the label (2)

  - The property that serves as your code (3)


You can therefore select the "Automatically generate a code" option to use an automatic coding system based on a single, consistent rule. This allows you to publish content without having to worry about setting up a custom coding system.








3. After clicking "Publish," you will be prompted to log in

There are several ways to log in: Learn how to register and log in







4. Once you're logged in, if you have multiple tenants, you can select the tenant from which you want to export data.

If you have only one tenant, the section below will not appear (it is omitted by default):







5. The wizard proceeds to Step 2: Media Generation. myCADtools launches the BatchConverter tool to generate 3D views of each component. At the same time, the system calculates and applies a unique identifier to each file. This step may take several minutes, depending on the complexity of the assembly.







6. Once the product has been generated and sent to Visiativ Spare Parts, it is being created on the Spare Parts platform. You can wait to see the submission report or close this window.
