Is it possible to assign an overall density for a sub-assembly?

Pro gurus:

Happy Friday to all.

I have a Circuit card assembly in my top level assembly which weights about
.5 lbs on a scale. Pro/E assigns a default value of 1 to all the
components on the board which will mess up the top level mass properties
calculation. Is possible to assign a spcicific density value to the entire
CCA and tell Pro/E to ignore the sub-components on the PCB?

Thanks in advance for your time and help.

Frank
