bulk item - how to show A/R in BOM table

[daver]

Hi All


Very simple question


Not expecting a simple answer....


How canI get the BOM table to show the item quantity as "A/R" for bulk items?


i know there is a parameter "BOM_REPORT_QUANTITY" in the bulk item template but this is set to an integer and i want it to be a string that i can modify it. i will be creating a bespoke bulk item template.prt for our company for the future.


i have also tried the table embeded relation:-


IF asm_mbr_type == "BULK ITEM"
NUM = "AR"
ELSE
NUM = rpt_qty


ENDIF


but this did not work as the parameter "asm_mbr_type" was not recognised

looking forward to your replies





cheers

Hi,


Make sure that the parameter asm_mbr_type exists in you repeat region relationwindow. You might need to create it when you type your relation.


Make sure also you show the report symbol rpt.num in your repeat region column.


You also may want to convert eh rpt_qty into a string. itos(rpt_qty). I'm not sure if you really need to do this.


Good Luck
