Part BOM with configurations

warner · May 13, 2015, 12:08pm

Is it possible to make a general bill of materials for a part with several configurations?

I have a part with 5 welded bodies, and there is only 1 that varies depending on the configuration (3 config)

I would like a global nomenclature where there would be 3 "Quantity" columns with a number 1 for this part in each respective column.

The other bodies being identical, he regroups.

Hello, or it is possible to display several columns for each configuration see this link:

But it's not possible to group as far as I know (in the style of drilling tables).

But is it a bill of materials in the plan of the part or assembly?

For more information, see this page:

Look at the 3 example links at the bottom, to see if there is one that matches:

It is a part and not an assembly.

So all this unfortunately doesn't work...

And does this work?
