Summary


Details

Most assemblies work well and it is no problem to place a parts list and balloons in the draft. The reported assembly is different in its behaviour. The user wants to place a parts list and balloons with item numbers but after selecting the drawing view, the user sees that the parts list only contains the header and no balloons are placed.

Solution

The first step when analyzing parts list issues is to generate  a report in the assembly. In this case you receive the warning message "The selected assembly does not contain any reportable parts."

With a right-mouse-click on the main assembly in the PathFinder select 'Occurrence Properties'. In there, all parts are set to not be included in 'Reports/ Parts List'. 

Setting this occurrence property to YES for all parts solves this issue.
