Declaring Mass

Does anyone know of a way to declare a specific mass on a part? For instance, if I import a PCB which I can stick on a weight scale, is there a way to attach the mass of the board to the CAD file. I'm ok that the program would assume a homogeneous material. I suppose I could reverse calculate the density from the mass and calculated volume and then apply that density on a custom material to the CAD file, but that would be a workaround that would have to be changed for every PCB. Thanks!
