We have been generating our BOM from a custom property called ITEM with all of our PIping Components.
this.PIPE_MATERIAL is a property that users select from a drop down menu. It has a select few options generated from the PIPE_MATERIAL_VALUE_MAP
In Openplant the Display Label is shown when we select the material, but the ITEM description shows the Name (with underscores)
We would like it to show the Display Label in the ITEM description as well. Is this possible?

Hello Brynn,Thanks for asking your query on Bentley Plant forum.
When a record is picked using value map, it picks its name rather than defined display label. As per your above query we suggest you to enter material name without underscore in name field instead of display label field.
