Display as one item number |
Uses the same item number for
different configurations of a component in different top-level
assembly configurations. Each unique component configuration can be
present in only one of the assembly configurations in the BOM. This
option applies when you create a BOM. If you switch it after the BOM
is created, there is no change. When you use this option, set
BOM Type to Top-level only. For example, one configuration of an assembly has the following
components:
- part1 (config_A)
- part1 (config_A)
- part1 (config_A)
And another configuration of the
same assembly has different configurations of the same
component:
- part1 (config_B)
- part1 (config_B)
- part1 (config_B)
A Top-level only BOM that references both
assembly configurations with Display
as one item number selected appears as:
ITEM NO. |
PART NUMBER |
config_A /
QTY. |
config_B /
QTY. |
1 |
part1
(config_A) |
3 |
- |
1 |
part1
(config_B) |
- |
3 |
To see the configuration name
in the PART NUMBER
column, go to the part document. In the ConfigurationManager
 tab,
right-click each configuration, and click Properties. Under Part number displayed when used in a bill
of materials, select Configuration Name.
Alternatively,
right-click a component in the BOM's assembly structure
column and click Component
Options. Under Part Number, select Configuration Name, then
click .
|
Display configurations of the same part as separate
items |
If a component has multiple
configurations, each configuration appears in the BOM. |
Display all configurations of the same part as one
item |
If a component has multiple
configurations, the component appears in only one row in the BOM.
|
Display configurations with the same name as one
item |
If more than one component has
the same configuration name, they appear in one row of the BOM.
For this option to
work properly, Part number displayed
when used in a bill of materials in the part
must be set to either:
- The same
User Specified
Name
- Configuration
Name (if different components in the
assembly have the same configuration names)
For example, an assembly has the following
components:
- part1 (config_A)
- part1 (config_A)
- part2 (config_A)
When you select Display configurations with the same name
as one item, the BOM appears as:
ITEM NO. |
PART NUMBER |
QTY.
|
1 |
part1 |
3 |
