Summary


Details

For the parts list- customer default parts list for Native and TCIN mode is metric.prt but if we use imperial part then part list is not picking up as default setting.

By default metric templates is picking the customized parts list, but imperial is taking PC no. 
WE need both the templates to take same part list

Solution

Two separate part list template files should be created in Teamcenter.  These files should have the same name and then have either _metric or _ Imperial at the end of the name. 
 
For example:
PL_Template_metric/A 
PL_Template_Imperial/A
 
The name and revision of the parts list template should be added to the customer defaults under Drafting Standard --> Table --> Parts List --> Default Parts List: TCIN mode. 
 
This name entered should be the name of the template without _metric or _ Imperial included but including the revision   
 
For example, if the templates were names such as this: 
PL_Template_metric/A 
PL_Template_ Imperial/A 
 
The value for the customer default should be:
 
@DB/PL_Template/A 
 (Please note the inclusion of the revision in the customer default value)
