Quantity Macro

We have a macro that someone did that goes thru the assembly & counts all of the components and adds a property to the parts with the quantity that we use in our part callouts. The one thing that this does not do is to take into account those parts that are marked "EXCLUDE FROM BOM". Does anyone have a macro or can someone look at the macro we have & modify it so that it doesn't include those parts marked exclude. I've included the macro that we have. If you're able thank you many times over & if you're not able thank you as well.

I'd try replacing the lines:

Code: Select all

If tCmp.ReferencedConfiguration = Cfg Then
	cCnt = cCnt + 1
End If
With these:

Code: Select all

If tCmp.ReferencedConfiguration = Cfg Then
	Dim configOpt as Integer
	Dim configNames as Object
	If Not tComp.GetExcludeFromBOM2(configOpt, configNames) Then
		cCnt = cCnt + 1
	End If
End If

Austin,
I tried that and it failed. The debugger came up & it did not have a variable created for the tCOMP so I changed that to just tCmp like the other lines above it had but it still failed. When I changed that & ran it, the debugger came up & errored in this area telling me that theres no if with the Next & then no if with the Else. I ran the debugger on the original & it didn't fail in those two areas.

Next j
CmpDoc.AddCustomInfo3 Cfg, "AutoQty", 30, ""
CmpDoc.AddCustomInfo3 Cfg, "QtyIn", 30, ""
CmpDoc.CustomInfo2(Cfg, "AutoQty") = cCnt
CmpDoc.CustomInfo2(Cfg, "QtyIn") = Assembly.GetTitle & " Cfg " & Assembly.ConfigurationManager.ActiveConfiguration.Name
End If
Else

Yes, I also downloaded "QtyMacroFeature.swp.zip"
and replaced

Code: Select all

             'If tCmp.ReferencedConfiguration = Cfg Then
              'cCnt = cCnt + 1
             'End If
with this

Code: Select all

              If tCmp.ReferencedConfiguration = Cfg Then
                Dim configOpt As Integer
                Dim configNames As Object
                If Not tComp.GetExcludeFromBOM2(configOpt, configNames) Then
                    cCnt = cCnt + 1
                 End If
              End If
and When I changed the
Component Properties.jpg
status of one of the items it still wanted to ignore that I did not want to include it when I ran the macro
It counted the excluded item anyway.

Sorry, John. Try this?

Code: Select all

If tCmp.ReferencedConfiguration = Cfg Then
	If Not tCmp.GetExcludeFromBOM2(swInConfigurationOpts_e.swThisConfiguration, tCmp.ReferencedConfiguration) Then
		cCnt = cCnt + 1
	End If
End If

I tried also BUT

Using this code:

Code: Select all

If tCmp.ReferencedConfiguration = Cfg Then
                  If Not tCmp.GetExcludeFromBOM2(swInConfigurationOpts_e.swThisConfiguration, tCmp.ReferencedConfiguration) Then
                     cCnt = cCnt + 1
                  End If
              End If
When I run it I get this:
---- test --- type mismatch 01.jpg
---- test --- type mismatch 01.jpg (21.66 KiB) Viewed 3696 times


Then the debug This:
---- test --- type mismatch 02.jpg

Finally got an assembly made to test it....

Code: Select all

            
If Not tCmp.GetExcludeFromBOM2(swInConfigurationOpts_e.swThisConfiguration, tCmp.ReferencedConfiguration)(0) Then
	cCnt = cCnt + 1
Need to add (0) after the function, and it does work for myself (up to that point)

I replaced the lines
"If tCmp.ReferencedConfiguration = Cfg Then
cCnt = cCnt + 1
End If"
with the code you have and it will run. However the quantity I am getting is now 118 for everything including those marked as exclude from BOM.

I've been trying to follow along with what you're looking to do with this macro so maybe this will help.

This is only the code from your rebuild function, the rest is unmodified.

Code: Select all

Public Function swmRebuild(swAppIn As Variant, partIn As Variant, featureIn As Variant) As Variant
    Dim Assembly As ModelDoc2
    Dim myAsy As AssemblyDoc
    Dim myCmps
    Dim Cfg As String
    Dim CmpDoc As ModelDoc2
    Dim i As Long
    Dim j As Long
    Dim cCnt As Long
    Dim NoUp As Long
    Dim myCmp As Component2
    Dim tCmp As Component2
    Dim tm As Double
    tm = Timer
    
    Set swApp = swAppIn
    Set Assembly = swApp.ActiveDoc
    Set myAsy = Assembly
'    If Assembly.ConfigurationManager.ActiveConfiguration.Name <> Assembly.CustomInfo2("", "Cfg4Qty") Then
'     Assembly.Extension.ShowSmartMessage "Qtys not updated due to config", 1000, True, True
'     Exit Function
'    End If
    NoUp = 0
    myCmps = myAsy.GetComponents(False)
    For i = 0 To UBound(myCmps)
     Set myCmp = myCmps(i)
     Debug.Print myCmp.Name & vbTab & "Excl: " & myCmp.ExcludeFromBOM
     If (myCmp.GetSuppression = 3) Or (myCmp.GetSuppression = 2) Then
      cCnt = 0
      Set CmpDoc = myCmp.GetModelDoc
      If Not CmpDoc Is Nothing Then
        Cfg = myCmp.ReferencedConfiguration
        For j = 0 To UBound(myCmps)
         Set tCmp = myCmps(j)
         Debug.Print vbTab & tCmp.Name & vbTab & "Excl: " & tCmp.ExcludeFromBOM
         If tCmp.GetSuppression <> 0 And tCmp.ExcludeFromBOM = False And myCmp.ExcludeFromBOM = False Then
          If tCmp.GetModelDoc2 Is CmpDoc Then
           If tCmp.ReferencedConfiguration = Cfg Then
            cCnt = cCnt + 1
           End If
          End If
         End If
        Next j
        CmpDoc.AddCustomInfo3 Cfg, "AutoQty", 30, ""
        CmpDoc.AddCustomInfo3 Cfg, "QtyIn", 30, ""
        CmpDoc.CustomInfo2(Cfg, "AutoQty") = cCnt
        CmpDoc.CustomInfo2(Cfg, "QtyIn") = Assembly.GetTitle & " Cfg " & Assembly.ConfigurationManager.ActiveConfiguration.Name
      End If
     Else
      NoUp = NoUp + 1
     End If
    Next i
    Assembly.Extension.ShowSmartMessage NoUp & " Parts not updated due to lightweight (" & Timer - tm & "s)", 10000, True, True
    swmRebuild = True
End Function
This will place a 0 quantity for any component that is marked as "Exclude from BOM". Good luck!

That works on my assembly just fine.

Re: Quantity Macro

The macro you are running creates a macro feature. It's a feature that contains macro code that runs every time you rebuild. This particular macro feature is set up to always be at the end of the feature tree (to make sure it runs last during rebuild and counts everything). The code contained in the macro feature is what counts parts and writes custom properties. You should not run the macro more than once on any given assembly, unless you delete the macro feature from the tree first. Otherwise you'll just be counting twice. It will not make your quantities wrong/double/etc, it will just waste time.

A macro feature gets inserted into the feature tree so its "Rebuild" function gets called every time the model/assy rebuilds. In this case, it updates the quantities in child components when the assembly rebuilds to keep them accurate.

Thanks for the explanation Josh & AlexB
I do not want to co-opt this thread at all, but, I just wanted to see what the macro did or did not do
Turns out it did/does more than I expected.
With AlexB's correction it did seem to add up correctly on my small assembly
But
I wanted to test it a bit more and ran it on a larger assembly with 5 or so deep sub assemblies and it
and it did not add things up right
(One of the major subassemblies that had subassys under it was excluded but the macro still counted the parts in it
in the total, where as the SW BOM did not count the excluded sub assy parts)
I did dissect the macro a bit more to see how... VB SW macro code works... I probably could read a book...
Or well nowadays watch a you tube to learn... but I like to take things apart to see how they work.
Thanks again for the explanation.

with the text you included here plus the others up the way & tried to run it. It didnt appear to work correct as there was no macro feature created at the bottom of the tree. With all of the changes that are up thru the posts can you attach your complete macro so I can make sure I didn't miss anything along the way. Thanks.

Hi,
Not for nothing, But I did try the latest, above code, on my "Top level" multi level assy
And it did not count correctly, My "Main" top level, level 1" assy calls out a sub assy, "clamp slide assy", as a level 2 that it in turn calls out/has in it several of the same sub assemblies, "Clamp assy" a level 3 assy
the level 2 assy "clamp slide" calls to suppress "one" of the "clamp assy" level 3 sub-assemblies in it. Yet the above code still counts the parts in the suppressed level 3 "clamp assy"
Where as the SW BOM does not count the parts in the suppressed sub assy.
I just wanted to try the code to see how it worked, but at least for me it did not.

Not for nothing, But I did try the latest, above code, on my "Top level" multi level assy
And it did not count correctly, My "Main" top level, level 1" assy calls out a sub assy, "clamp slide assy", as a level 2 that it in turn calls out/has in it several of the same sub assemblies, "Clamp assy" a level 3 assy
the level 2 assy "clamp slide" calls to suppress "one" of the "clamp assy" level 3 sub-assemblies in it. Yet the above code still counts the parts in the suppressed level 3 "clamp assy"
Where as the SW BOM does not count the parts in the suppressed sub assy.
I just wanted to try the code to see how it worked, but at least for me it did not.
I am just trying to learn by looking at code.
I've tried to reproduce the scenario you're describing and am getting correct values in my top-level assembly of several hundred parts. I'm not sure what the potential issue is.

The only thing I can think of is that I am using the same part in two different subassemblies and
the last one evaluated "WINS" so to speak
BOM Top.jpg
For I am using the Flexible coupling, and the other "Yellow" items above, in two diff assemblies.


But as for the clamp
I know that the SW BOM Qty is right I need 20 total
but I suppressed one Sub assembly that has 5 in it
the macro counts 25

something is not right.
