How to make sure Sheet bodies are not in the Model reference set.
Solution
Currently there is no out of the box NX setting that will automatically add sheet bodies to their own reference set.
In order to prevent sheet bodies from being added to Model reference set:
1. Start NX with the following Customer Default.
2. Go to Assemblies-> Site Standards.
3. On the right select the Reference Set tab.
4. Under Model reference set check the option for Solids Priority. Ok the Defaults and restart NX.
5. In the part file first create a dummy solid body (e.g. block). This will add the Solid body to Model reference set.
6. From this point on, any sheet bodies created will not be automatically added to Model reference set, since Model reference set already contains a Solid.
7. After adding sheet bodies, delete the dummy solid body.
