Hello,

 

I have an assembly which consist of machined parts and standard parts (like screws, springs...etc) i need to make separate BOM for machined & standard parts, is it possible to do it by manually selecting the parts for different BOM's

It's pretty easy to manually filter items out using the repeat region filters (I'm assuming you're talking about a drawing here).  Better would be to find a way to filter them by rule, perhaps your file names have consistent prefixes or you could create a Y/N parameter named "standard" in each part set to Y for standard parts, N for machined.  Then I think this will show only the standard parts:

 

&asm.mbr.standard == Y

 

And this will only show the machined:

 

&asm.mbr.standard == N
