How to Add a New Item to a Structure Integrated from SolidWorks
In fast-moving product development, manually editing bills of materials (BOMs) after design updates is a hidden bottleneck. Nora IPLM addresses this at the source by connecting directly with your CAD system (such as SolidWorks) and enabling you to add new items, assign relationships (“material”, “supplier”, etc.), and instantly reflect changes in your PLM-controlled structure.
