Hi is this option only available for Inventor Professional? I have OEM and cannot find the option under the design tab. I have also tried to reset the Ribbon.

Hello, is there any option how to get length of the belt into the assembly BOM? Thanks

Thanks for the question! The design accelerator creates generic parts based upon know industry standards while still providing the ability to customize the results as well. This means that the resulting belt may or may not be a length that is standard and would still have to be sourced. Therefore the expectation is that the description would be produced upon sourcing of the part to meet either the supplier description or your internal description standards. So, once you know the length you can put that in the iproperties "description" field, along with its complete description" and it will appear in any bill of materials. The length is shown (and can be over-written to be a custom length) when creating the belt system in a field called "Datum Length". If you have already created the belt system you can right click on it in the model tree and click "Edit Using Design Accelerator". You will then be able to find the "Datum Length" and transfer that information to the iproperties "description". I hope this answered you question clearly.
