Use this dialog box to enter part or assembly information for the BOM.
Component Properties Provides the ability to enter data for component properties. Only the component properties pre-configured for display in this dialog box appear.
Note: The Name component property is set to a formula, by default. This formula enables AutoCAD Mechanical toolset to pick up the name of objects such as blocks, automatically. However, if you specify a name manually (even when the formula does not pick up a name automatically), AutoCAD Mechanical toolset considers it an override and highlights it in blue.
