How do I view a rack added in the BOM in the Rack Layout

Overview

When a rack is added to the BOM, you can view the rack in the Rack Layout in X-DRAW by using the Pull BOM Changes option.

• Open the Design BOM and add the required rack.

• Navigate to the Rack Layout Editor and click Pull BOM Changes.
• If there are no racks added to the BOM, X-DRAW will automatically create a temporary rack in the Rack Layout.
• The products from the BOM will then be automatically placed in the temporary rack based on the available Rack Units (RU).

• The rack added to the BOM will be available in the Rack Layout.
• If all available Rack Units (RU) in the added rack are occupied and there are still products remaining to be placed, X-DRAW will automatically create a temporary rack named “Rack” in the Rack Layout.
• The remaining products will then be automatically added to this temporary rack based on the available Rack Units.

Note:

• Once you add a new rack to the BOM and use the Pull BOM Changes option, the products from the temporary rack will automatically be moved to the newly added rack, depending on the available Rack Unit capacity
• To update the rack unit for a product, please follow the steps mentioned in the article link: https://knowledgebase.xtenav.com/en-us/article/how-can-i-put-the-05-rack-unit-for-a-product-16g000n/
