BOM's in SE

BOM's in SE

BOM's in SE

(OP)
Is using Excel the best way to get a BOM list in SE Draft
I can only get 45 lines max, sometimes 61 which then flips to 45 again !
Plus the positioning is guess work using Excel

Any Advice


TIA

RE: BOM's in SE

What version of SE are you running?  Have you tried the parts list in SE?  Is there a reason you are using Excel rather than SE to create the parts list/BOM?

(OP)
I use Excel as this is company instructions.
I just converted about 2 months ago (from Bravo) and
the more I use SE in line with the company manual
the more I see which i dont agree with.
i.e. one user has tried to convince all users that
relationships are not needed and are usless.
Basically 'they' have us drawing like it was MS Powerpoint or something
Ill look at the SE parts list
BTW - UGS are involved with our transfer !!!

Thanks
