A parts list system includes a CAD section and a parts list section. The
CAD section generates a CAD figure of a part included in an apparatus
based on design reference data, and extracts a part number of the part,
configuration part numbers of configuration parts of the part and
attribute data from the CAD figure. Here, the design reference data is
reference for design. The attribute data indicate properties of the part
and the configuration parts. The parts list section generates the parts
list based on the part number, the configuration part numbers and the
attribute data from the CAD figure and the design reference data. Here,
the parts list relates the part number, the configuration part numbers
and part data. The part data indicate properties of the part and the
configuration part. Then, the CAD section modifies the CAD figure based
on a modification command showing a modified design, and extracts the
part number, the configuration part numbers and the attribute data from
the modified CAD figure. The parts list section modifies the parts list,
based on the part number, the configuration part numbers and the
attribute data from the modified CAD figure.
