Bill Of Material

(OP)
Is there a way to set up a parameter in the BOM to put certian parts in order and also to show the weight?

RE: Bill Of Material

You could export Bom to excel and use the sort feature.  First you should create 2 parameters in the property page -- product tab.  Define other properties.  Create an integer parameter. End user increments number to affect desired order.  This will allow the sort in Excel.  Create a mass parameter and  define a formula to use smart volume of partbody * density of material.
When you export BOM - add these 2 new columns.

Derek
