BOM item numbers...???
(OP)
When I create a BOM for a product and each part is given a number, that number is carried over for every other Product BOM.
i.e. If part A is item #5 in Product AA BOM, when I create a new Product (BB), part A is still item #5, regardless of where it is listed.
Is there anyway around this?

Try changing the properties of the part and delete the part instance number, and save the part. Then try it in the new product (BB) and see if it renumbers it.
(it's been awhile since I did this)

Once I closed out the original assembly and created a new assembly, the component could be renumbered. I guess if the original assembly is open, the item number must be associated some how.
