Yes, these are both still available with V8 and E9.

The trouble is that you're going to have to do the "Keep When" logic in your
..p program to know what parts are included or you'll just have to add
weights to your inputs and accumulated them that way.

We are trying to set up a new part thru a configurator. I have the part numbers input in a drop down box that will allow sales to pick the parts they want. What I am trying to do is get the Price and the weight for the chossen part to poopulate in a decimal box on the configurator for the part that is chossen.

I can make it work using on leave rules, but I would have to put in a lot of lines of code as there are at least 215 parts they are choosing from.

If I can get this to work than I can get the totals for weight and price to show up when the part is configured.

Can anyone steer me in the right direction as to how I can get this to happen. Is there any code I can put in the configurator the make this work or is the some kind of p file that can be written to bring in this information on the configurator.

Thank You
Gene

If the Part exists then you certainly can use a '.p' program to grab the Weight and Price from the 'Part' table, think of it as a 'function' where you send in the part number -based on user selection- (and maybe 'company' or other qualifiers) and get back 'weight' and 'price'.

 There is also a 'getTableData.p' program provided to be used with Configurators, but I think it likes to work in Combo Boxes, it gives a comma-delimited list of data based on inputs and filter criteria. You tell it which 'table 'to look in and what you want. We're on ver 6.10.541 , I'm not sure if this is still around with the 8+ versions.
