Defining Export Filters
This form allows us to define export conditions for each item and the structure of the BOM.
A filter is composed of a file type, a condition, and a filter type :
- File type: is the file extension on which the condition will be applied (e.g. sldprt) => All documents containing the extension sldprt will be filtered. The wildcard character can be used here, so just type the extension without the .
- Condition: is of the form Variable=Value
It is possible to use the wildcard character * in the value
- Type: The different possible values are :
- MATERIAL_YES: The material is exported in the BOM. This is the default behavior.
- MATERIAL_NON: The material is not exported in the BOM. If this material has components (lower-level follow-on documents), none of its components appear in the BOM.
- ARTICLE_FANTOME : The material is not exported in the BOM. If this material has components (lower-level follow-on document), these appear in the BOM, but they go up one level and the respective quantities are recalculated (multiplied by the quantity of the_FANTOM_MATERIAL).
- UNIT_MATERIAL: The material is exported in the BOM. If this material has components, these are not shown in the BOM (not exported).
Items will have a default behaviour ARTICLE_YES, except for the conditions defined above.
