I have a customised table for fetching all parts all parts from model tree . But the error in the table is it does not display alphabetically / in order of the model tree. E.G:- it goes like 001,003,002. but I need it configured as in order. Can anyone help. Attached is the file.

Thanks in advance

    Hello Bhagyesh Vashi

    as far as l know: Default sort "parameter" in BOM tables is weight , if nothing has been specified in SORT BY.

    How to specify SORT BY parameter?

    1. Create desired BOM table

    2. Go to REPEAT REGION - SORT REGIONS

    3. Select desired BOM table

    4. Select EDIT in pop-up menu

    5. Text editor will open - here you can define SORT BY conditions

    - you can speicfy more parameters

        - first row is primary parameter for sorting

        - second row is secondary parameter for sorting

        - etc.

        - if all parameters are missing, than Creo use weight for sorting

    For examlpe:

    &asm.mbr.pozice Forward

    &asm.mbr.pro_mp_mass Forward

    6. SORT BY possibilities

    BACKWARD or FORWARD

    -----------------

    Hope it can helps

    Is there any way you know of to do this at the format level?

    When we start a new drawing, we would like the BOM to populate in order by part number.

    It currently orders it by the "description"

    It is a huge pain to need to organize it each time a drawing is made.

    In your drawing template, set the sort order in the repeat region so it formats the way you want.

    Hi,

    my tip...

    1.]

    Start with simple repeat region ... 1 column containin asm.mbr.name

    Is component order equal to model tree ? I hope so.

    Check repeat region attributes setting.

    2.]

    Go back to your table.

    Check repeat region attributes setting. Try to set it as in 1.]
