Revision Table Template with Revision 00 filled out

Revision Table Template with Revision 00 filled out

Revision Table Template with Revision 00 filled out

(OP)
The company I work with uses Revision 00 to 'Release for manufacturing'.  I'd like to create a SolidWorks BOM Template with this included as it is standard. When I fill out the revision row and save to a template file, the save excludes the revision 00.  Is there a way to save a BOM template with the first revision already filled in?
Thanks!

I assume you meant Rev and not BOM

... and to answer your question, No.

You can add the rev table to your drawing template, add the row with the revision, then save back the drawing template.
I have mine setup this way.

Thank you Chris!  I think this will work for us.

Chris ... With the rev showing? When I tried it didn't show.

Will try again later.

CBL,
Yes.
Open the template, add the rev block and the rev.
"Save sheet format" and also do a "save as .drwdot".

Hmmm ... Worked this time. Must have been a hiccup ... or I did something stupid.

Anyway, good to know.
