BOM's again

BOM's again

BOM's again

(OP)
Thanks for all the help lately all!

New question: WhenI Insert>Bill of Material. If my asm. has configurations. And i just need to use the default for the BOM, I always get Default/Qty. as the title of the quantity column. Its telling me that the quantities in that calum are associated with that Config. What can be done so it will not show "Default/QTY." and just QTY.?  I cant seem to change this. I've tried to edit the cell but it always comes back.

THANKS!!!

Adam

RE: BOM's again

you need to rename the "Qty." column and exclude the period in the name so that it reads "Qty".

You then can save the BOM as a template and when you insert a new BOM just browse to the template you saved.

I don't know why it works but it does.

Best Regards,
Jon
