Commonly Used Variables

Here are some commonly used variables that can get you started.

For all components:

• calculationDate

• costedByUserFullName

• selectedRoutingName – removes unnecessary optional-but-unused process names

• displayName – shows process name correctly for User Defined Processes

For parts

• materialName

• materialStockName

• materialUnitCost – shows actual unit cost used in material calculation

For assembly sub-components

• parentScenario

• countInParent

• “aggregates” = (individual value) x countInParent

Note that this provides only the count for the current BOM depth. If you have the same part in multiple depths of the BOM, it will not output the total count in all BOM levels as one value, but rather it will be a value for each level.
