Config. Name in BOM
Config. Name in BOM
(OP)
I'm using two configurations on an assembly (Fabrication and Machining). On my drawing, I have a BOM and in the 'QTY' column, the configuration name is displayed with the title (Fabrication/QTY). I can edit the title and remove the word Fabrication but whenever I rebuild or re-open the drawing 'Fabrication' always comes back. Is there some type of option to 'Not show config. name in column title'?

Remove the . after QTY when editing the Column name.
So Config/QTY. becomes just QTY
