How to add the UGPART drawing specification dataset name as an attribute in NX.
Once the drawing has this attribute in NX, it can be used in a Note on the drawing.
Solution
1. Export your Teamcenter mapping file.
a. Open a Teamcenter command prompt.
b. Type: export_attr_mappings -u=infodba -p=<password> -g=dba -file=C:\user\mapping.txt
NOTE: Specify your own infodba password and specify a path for the mapping file that fits your folders.
2. Edit the mapping.txt in a text editor.
a. Under UGPART, add the following mapping:
NOTE: That you would enter the ItemType of the data being mapped. This example is mapping to the OOTB "Item" ItemType.
{ Dataset type="UGPART"
# (hard-wired) DB_DATASET_ID : "Part File ID"
# (hard-wired) DB_DATASET_REV : "Part File Rev"
{Item type="Item"
NX_DATASET_NAME : object_name /master=iman /description="Dataset Name"
}
}
3. Save the mapping file.
4. Import the modified mapping file back into Teamcenter.
a. Open a Teamcenter command prompt.
b. Type: import_attr_mappings -u=infodba -p=<password> -g=dba -file=C:\user\mapping.txt
NOTE: Specify your own infodba password and specify a path for the file that fits your folders.
