Referencing: Targeted Synchronization of Attributes (3-D)

Part attributes which are not to be updated on a regular basis can be synchronized in a specific, targeted way.

File REF3D_ATTR_AKT.DAT is available for this in the SYS directory, in which you can define the following for each part attribute:

To do this, you define a line with the following structure for the corresponding part attribute:

"ID","type","adjustment" #comment

ID

You specify the ID of the attribute here, e.g. #PR for BOM- relevance or %02 for the item number. You must enclose the ID in " ".

Type

You enter the attribute type here in " ", STRING, INTEGER or DOUBLE.

Adjustment

Enter the type of adjustment in " " here. The following entries are possible:

  • NEVER
    The specified part attribute is never updated.
  • ALG3DPAR
    The setting in the Configuration Editor at System settings > Referencing > Synchronize item numbers/part attributes when updating file is used.
  • SP
    The part attribute is only updated for sub-parts.

Comment

At the end of each line, you can enter a comment text beginning with #.

Part attributes not listed in the file are updated for main parts and sub-parts.
