I've added a column for the material in my family table using PTC_MATERIAL_NAME. However, any instance that doesn't use the assigned Generic material has a regeneration issue. Whenever I press regenerate it says "Material XXXX was assigned to the part" in the message log. And this occurs for any higher level assemblies that use this part. I'm expecting no regeneration to occur if nothing has changed. The higher level assy should say "Automatic regeneration of the parts has been completed.". However, with the instance inside of the assembly, it doesn't say that. It keep on regenerating the assembly and saying "Material XXXXX was assigned to the part. Automatic regeneration of the parts has been completed." I would like to avoid this at all costs because I don't like my assemblies to regenerate if nothing has changed. It causes nightmares when the assembly is promoted and released in Windchill but still used in higher level assemblies. Can anyone help me with this? The easy answer would be to not have the PTC_Material_Name in the family table. I would like to avoid that if possible.
