Figure 1 — Graphical Representation for Business Object Assembly Item attribute details

This information object represents the information for an assembly item.

Attribute name	Attribute description	Attribute type	Optionality
description	This attribute provides a description of the Assembly Item.	Intrinsic	Mandatory
id	This attribute provides an identifier associated with the assembly item.	Identifier	Mandatory
name	This attribute provides the name of the Assembly Item being used.	Intrinsic	Mandatory
related Product Design	This identifies any related product design information.	Intrinsic	Mandatory
type	This attribute provides the type of assembly item being provided. For example, the assembly item may provide an assembly definition or manufacturing definition, or other subclassification of these.	Intrinsic	Mandatory

The following classes and their sub-classes can be used:

classifications: [Manufacturing_definition]

Allow the Part entity instantiated in this path to be referenced when this template is used.

Note: The Part entity can be referenced in a template path by:

%^target = $assembly_item.assembly_item%

where target is the parameter to which the Part is bound.

Allow the Part_version entity instantiated in this path to be referenced when this template is used.

Note: The Part_version entity can be referenced in a template path by:

%^target = $assembly_item.assembly_item_vn%

where target is the parameter to which the Part_version is bound.

Allow the Part_view_definition entity instantiated in this path to be referenced when this template is used.

Note: The Part_view_definition entity can be referenced in a template path by:

%^target = $assembly_item.assembly_item_view%

where target is the parameter to which the Part_view_definition is bound.

Allow the View_definition_context entity instantiated in this path to be referenced when this template is used.

Note: The View_definition_context entity can be referenced in a template path by:

%^target = $assembly_item.assembly_item_cntxt%

where target is the parameter to which the View_definition_context is bound.

Allow the External_class entity instantiated in this path to be referenced when this template is used.

Note: The External_class entity can be referenced in a template path by:

%^target = $assembly_item.ext_class%

where target is the parameter to which the External_class is bound.

The instance diagram in Figure 4 shows an example of the EXPRESS entities and templates that are instantiated by the template:

/assembly_item(item_id='P300-541', item_name='Location pin', description='slot 90 degree', item_type='Assembly_definition', item_design_authority='96412', related_product_design='@100')/

(an illustration of the consolidated assembly_item template is shown in Figure 5 below.)

The instance diagram in Figure 5 shows the graphic symbol for the template that is to be used in other instance diagrams. The example template is:

/assembly_item(item_id='P300-541', item_name='Location pin', description='slot 90 degree', item_type='Assembly_definition', item_design_authority='96412', related_product_design='@100')/
