Sustainability_part

To view the material financial impact of a single part:

  1. Open a part and click Tools > Sustainability.

  3. Click Set Material.
  4. Expand the Environmental Impact dashboard.

    The material financial impact is shown near the bottom of the dashboard.

    If this is the first time you have selected a material for the part, there is no previous financial impact to compare to. Only the current financial impact can be shown.

  5. In the Material section, choose a different material for the part and click Set Material.

    Since there are values to compare, SolidWorks Sustainability shows the percentage decrease or increase in cost.
