A quick iLogic rule to sniff out and remove any overrides and display the master BOM data in your part list(s) again.
We can’t always guarantee that other Inventor users will follow good practice when creating parts lists in drawings. One really common issue we see is an inexperienced (or deadline haunted) designer manually entering data into a drawing parts list. This results in a broken link between the model data (the master) and the drawing parts list. Bad news.
Many CAD managers will appreciate the ability to quickly highlight issues such as this, so here’s a quick iLogic rule to sniff out any overrides and give the ability to automatically remove the overrides and display the master BOM data in your parts list(s) again.
The iLogic rule checks ALL parts lists in the active drawing and gives the additional option to manually edit the offending parts list if desired. Give your CAD manager a hug.

The construction industry is entering a new era, and Bluebeam is once again leading the way. In 2026, Bluebeam Max will launch as a new premium subscription that combines the power of Revu with advanced AI technology. This blog highlights just some of features you will expect to see within Bluebeam Max.
In construction, the gap between the construction site and the office has always been a challenge. But by combining Bluebeam’s powerful PDF markup tools with GoCanvas’s mobile forms, companies can finally achieve seamless documentation that flows effortlessly from site to office.
Collaboration is the backbone of modern construction projects. Whether you’re reviewing drawings, marking up RFIs, or coordinating across multiple stakeholders, having the right platform makes all the difference. This blog reviews Bluebeam Studio (cloud-based) and Bluebeam Studio On-premise. While both enable teams to work together on PDFs in real time, the choice between them depends on your project requirements, IT policies, and security needs.
