Bills of Materials: Change Part Attribute ZUBEHOERSATZ (PE)

The attribute ZUBEHOERSATZ (=ACCESSORY SET) in the part record indicates whether an accessory set exists in the database and if so how it should be handled. A part does not necessarily need an accessory set, e.g. if two identical flanges are connected, only one flange requires an accessory set.

The following settings are available for the ZUBEHOERSATZ attribute of a part:

• 0 = never
  Irrespective of the situation, accessories are never assigned.
• 1 = yes, automatically
  When you insert or move a part,HiCAD checks the situation. If the accessory is fitted to an identical part to which accessories have been assigned, they are not assigned to the second part.
• 2 = yes, always 
  Irrespective of the situation, accessories are always assigned.

To edit the ZUBEHOERSATZ attribute proceed as follows:

1. Start the HELiOS part search.
2. Right-click the required part in the result list.
3. Select the Edit attribute value function.
4. Select the ZUBEHOERSATZ attribute and click the Process button.
5. Specify the required setting.
6. Close the window.

Proceed as follows to start the HELiOS part search: 

• In HiCAD
  On the Drawing tab, select Insert Part > Insert Part, via DB article master function. Specify filter criteria for a quick retrieval of the part: For example, enter *2633 in the Standard field if you are looking for a flange according to the industrial standard DIN 2633. You can narrow the result list further by clicking the Classification symbol and selecting a classification, e.g. Flange, round, and entering a nominal diameter on the new, same-named tab.
• In the HELiOS Desktop
  On the Find tab, select Articles . Enter the filter criteria in the same way as you would do for the part search in HiCAD.
