Interpart Expression reporting 2

[gergs]

I think we are seeing failures on NX9 legacy Interpart Expressions. Is there a reporting tool that can list all Interpart expressions in an assembly structure?

Is there a graphical or other method to show them and flag broken or failed Interpart Expressions in an assembly?

What I am looking for is the Linkage parameter or name of these expressions so I can check the failed expressions and recreate them in NX10.

Does anyone have a neat method to collect this data? I would like this even for working expressions really. Bad news is that I don't have Team Center if that has a solution.

Thanks all!

A couple of things that might help...

[ol 1]
[li]The Check-Mate checker "Check Interpart Expression Status" will go out and find any out-of-date or broken IPEs. Load the assembly, and run this checker against "All Loaded Parts" to scour the entire structure in one shot. The checker will automatically skip parts without IPEs, and will return the name of the errant IPE as shown here:

And you can filter out all of the skipped parts with one checkbox:

[li]If you have access to a WAVE license, you can use the Interpart Link Browser to dive into the details -- including a bunch of detailed information about the status of interpart expressions -- using this dialog:

[/ol]

Does that help a bit?
