BOM Question

Does anyone know how to export a comprehensive BOM of an assembly that includes all sub assembly parts also? The issue is that when I load sub assemblies into the main assembly, the individual sub assemblies are listed in that BOM, which I prefer, but, I would like to also generate a comprehensive BOM of everything that I can export to Excel containing all the down parts. This way it can be easily handed over to our material purchasing dept. and not require myself to self populate one from scratch by going through all sub assembly BOM's and adding them to one complete list.

I tried this but, my BOM file is saved as an .html file and there is no other choice in the drop down. By the way, I am using Creo 2.0. Not sure if that makes a difference or not?

You can open the HTML file in excel. It works surprisingly well.

The other option is to create a BOM on a drawing (or report).  The repeat region can simply be set to "recursive" so all components will automatically be listed.

If you use Windchill, you can create a custom table under the structure tab and export that.
