Symptoms

Actual Behavior

When the assembly includes a structure part which does not exist in Agile, executing "Transfer BOM find numbers" on its Drawings will create a new item in Agile

Expected Behavior

Even the assembly includes a structure part which does not exist in Agile, executing "Transfer BOM find numbers" on its Drawings should not create a new item in Agile

Fact

Setting CaxConfig.xml NonExistingPartsFromCAD to "remove" does not make any changes in the result

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a part in Solidworks. Do not create the item in Agile. Set the item number to the property.
2. In Solidworks, create one assembly which will have one structure part. In Agile, create the assembly item
3. Checkin to Agile
4. Check if item is created in Agile. Item is not created. This is expected.
5. In Solidworks, create the drawing for assembly, and create BOM
6. Checkin drawing
7. Check if item is created in Agile. Item is not created. This is expected.
8. From the drawings file, execute 'Transfer BOM find numbers'. Gets error (This is because transfer of the find number of the item which is not in the BOM was attempted, and is expected error)
9. Check if item is created in Agile. Item is created. This is not expected.
