Material in BOM

No, and it's one of the goofier things about Pro/e that so much information is stored in the part through 'Edit>Setup' that is unavailable parametrically through notes or in a table repeat region. Mass property calculations are available through pro_mp_mass, pro_mp_volume, and other model analysis parameters. This is only indirect access to the information through a calculation, using the density and other material properties. But a simple thing, like a material name, stored in the material file, is not. I have heard of storing the name on the Condition line and somehow making that available parametrically, but I don't know how. Wait long enough, though, and everything will eventually be fixed in a future rev.

David is on the right track here, in your material file write the material name in the CONDITION statement, add a parameter called "material" and add the following line in your relation: material=material_param("CONDITION")

Thats it.
