NX Assembly position overrides after CMM translation

NX Assembly position overrides after CMM translation           IR Number:   9823837

          Priority:   1

  Business Urgency:   No

      GTAC Urgency:   No

         PR Matrix:   Special Case

Problem Description:

================================

             

Migrating SOLIDWORKS data bottom up to NX.

The resulting NX assemblies got unexpected position overrides for components in NX. Migrating bottom up means:

  1.   Parts only

  2.   All Sub-Assemblies on each level BOM Structure bottom up

  3.   Top-Assembly

Application/Function: CMM SW2019 -> Migrate bottom up the BOM Structure to NX

Common/Part specific: Common

=============================================================================

Versions:

================================

NX 12.0.2MP2

SW2019

CMM 12.0.2.0

       

Zip File Containing:           

================================     

Part:      Yes

AVI:      no

Syslog:      Yes

Other Files:   Yes

Steps to Duplicate:

================================

To reproduce using CMMBATCH

1.)   Save SW Top Assembly C0004268 to Teamcenter

Please pick it from SW_C0004268.7z

2.)   Create Selection Files for

a.   LVL1 parts

b.   LVL2 sub assemblies

c.   LVL3 sub assemblies

d.   LVL4 sop assemblies

3.)   Migrate each level using CMMBATCH mode

a.   Before Starting next Level cleanup (delete) all files in CMMScratch

b.   See Batch.7z for details and how to reproduce (contains customers option file as well)

4.)   Open C0004268 in NX and find positions mixed up by position overrides constrains

a.   Compare (9823837_C0007445.7z) Customer Example C0007445_01.000.prt in folder C0007445_NX_TC (Same data just different name)

To reproduce within CMMSolo

Follow illustrated instructions in uploaded 9823837_HowToReproduceInCMMSolo.docx.

Please find results from using CMMSolo

       

==> ERROR:

No Error Messages but unexpected result.

Work Around:

================================

unknown

    

Expectation:

================================

Please investigate the root cause of the mismatch.  

Make sure CMM will not create unexpected Position Overrides for components in NX

 

Problem is part specific:

================================

unknown

Platform Information:

================================

Problem is platform specific:   no

 

Platform:    Intel Win10x64-bit

Problem verified on the following platform and OS versions:

Intel Win10x64-bit,

CMM1899 NX1926 SW2019

Additional Notes:

================================

Siemens PLM believes the problem of incorrect position overrides being created when migrating in stages with fresh scratch directories is fixed in the 1926 release of CMM. PR 9823837 Product Information: Product: NX , Application: CMM , Version: V12.0.2
