Summary


Details

In Teamcenter Integrated NX, when working on a part family spreadsheet in Excel, the Part Family drop-down menu is missing most of the options.


The menu only contains "Save Family" and "Cancel." We are attempting to verify a part but that is not a choice.



Solution

From the What's New for NX 1926:
 
Part Families enhancements
What is it?


The Part Families dialog box is enhanced to include an embedded spreadsheet that you can use, alongside supporting options, to create and edit part family tables.


Why should I use it?


You no longer need to go back and forth between NX and an Excel spreadsheet when you create or edit a part family.


You can now also check whether a template part has any part family member definitions by opening the template part and using the Part Families  command.


Where do I find it?


Application --> Modeling
Command Finder --> Part Families 
 
So the missing command in Excel are now available in the integrated spreadsheet:
