BOM FROM ASSEMBLY
BOM FROM ASSEMBLY
(OP)
I want to create a customized BOM on spreadsheet from an assebmly. If anybody is familiar with proe, there is a BOM icon that allows you to generate a file that can be edited using word. Can it be done as such in SW?

Your request will have to be placed in as an ER (Enhancement Request) at www.solidworks.com
A away around it be to put the assembly into a drawing produce a BOM. Export that BOM as a .csv, .txt or if you use the Excel based BOM, a .xls file. Then you can close the drawing and go back to the assemlby. Then insert that BOM into your model via, Insert\Object.
It will not be linked to your assembly, but all the data from the BOM that you exported from the drawing file will be there.

Can the macro be setup to where it reports the BOM as it is assembled. Currently it displays from lower to higher numerical value part numbers.
