Reset CIS group/subgroup link status

ggeorgg

Dear community, 

sometimes it happens, that we execute "Update all part status" on groups/subgroups in the part manager. When the database has changed, after the last "Update all part status" operation on the Core Design, then the parts in the group/subgroups will be marked as if they were linked to a different part than in the core, even though they have the same Part Number.

In the part manager itself, I could remove the part from the group and add it again, but it is anyoing because I have to look up first, if the link was done on purpose or if it happend accidentially by the "Update all part status" operation.

So the question is: Is there a way to reset the link status of parts in the part manager in group/subgroups via TCL if the Part Number of the part in the group/subgroup is the same as in the core?

Best would be to have a script which loops all groups/subgroups and then in each group/subgroup it has to loop over all linked parts and compare the Part Number to the Part Number of the same OccId in the core. If it matches, remove the "link" so that this occId is connects again to the Core part.

Best regards

Georg

    Hi CadAP! Thanks for your code.

    I am still struggling with this issue. First of all, it looks like the code is not working at all if we are talking about subgroups, because lPartsCount is 0 when using subgroups. So I changed the DSN file to just use groups and then the for loop cycled the components in this group.

    The property name I want to compare is "PARTNUM" so I replaced "Part_Number" with this key name.

    I also changed the if condition which compared the variant part number and the core part number to use "eq" instead of "ne" because I want to reset the link if the values match. Unfortunately, it looks like "$lCispatInst ResetLinkSetting" does not have any effect. If I look into the part manager again after the code did run successfully, the green tick is still visible in the group for the component.

    Additionally, I actually would like to be able to check if the current part in the for loop is linked at all, if not, I want to skip this part and continue to the next part in the current group.

    Do you have more suggestions on how to solve this? What does the method "ResetLinkSetting" do?

    Best regards

    Georg
