Grouping the BOM Parts List
Grouping the BOM Parts List
(OP)
We are in the process of changing the methods in which we manufacture and order all of out materials. I haven't had too much experience with the BOM Parts List so pardon me if I use the wrong verbiage. For simplicity, we have an attribute "Station", which will have a value of 1, 2, or 3 depending on where the component needs to go. If I just add the "Station" attribute to the BOM Parts List, we'll have some components that go into more than 1 station, and so the attributes end up overwriting each other. My idea is to sort the BOM Parts List by the "Station" attribute first, then do everything normally past that. Does anybody have ideas as how to accomplish this? Thanks in advanced!

I.e., how do you plan to sort on station number those components that go to multiple stations? the first station they go to, perhaps?

That is correct. My apologies for any confusion, it is difficult to explain these processes sometimes.
