BOM 1,2,3
config B
parts 1,2,3,4,5
BOM configA,4,5
Config C
parts 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8

RE: A bom question
You can manyally edit the BOM to not display the other items.

If your company requires you to do it this way, I suggest what TheTick wrote.

RE: A bom question
when i started in business, i saw that they are using seperate dwgs and separate partnumbers(seperate files) for showing a part's manufacturing operations..But i invited them to change this..
my first configA,
my parts are assembled and welded..
i need to show this assembly in a dwg..
configB
my assembly is Machining..so my parts have different dimensions and i will show them in seperate dwg.
configC,
iam inserting new components to my assembly.. and welding
so i need a seperate dwg..
****all dwgs are defining same part's manufacturing operations..
so all are same partnumber and there is ony an assembly file...
am i contemplating incorrect..???
