BOM: several configurations under the same line

Hello

In a Solidworks BOM, is it possible to display several configurations of the same part under a single line?...... while continuing to display multiple rows for multiple configurations of another component.

Example:

A set contains two pieces with multiple configurations (a CHC screw and a door gasket). The CHC screw will appear in several lengths, as will the door seal.

In the nomenclature, each configuration of the CHC screw must appear in different lines. On the other hand, the door seals must appear under a single line, containing the sum of the lengths.

 

Currently, we do this by hiding BOM lines, or by excluding components in the 3D. Then we write the sum of the lengths manually.  Which is not a very elegant working method...

 

Any idea? =)

Hello S.Guillaume,

Yes, it is possible to do this, but not everything on the same line.

I can't take screenshots because my pc is being processed.

Just go to the options on the left of your screen when you click on your already inserted BOM and or before inserting it.

Keep me informed.

Hello

I have the same problem, we work in "parts only" I have parts that are machined straight and that are "twisted" during installation. So I created a bending function with a different angle for each configuration to have a correct 3D visual, but in the base part is the same so I only want one line on my BOM.

I also have screws that are the same but with configurations of different sizes and lengths and I would like them to be visible in the nomenclature.

If anyone has the solution it will help me a lot
