Attached is a copy of what I would like my bom to look like.
I don't remember who sent this to me.
Exactly how would I create a table that will look like the attached file.
Thanks
I create a drawing with the top assembly with a standard bom I use.
Then pick table > repeat region > Flat/Rec Item > (pick table) >
rectangle the entire table with your mouse > middle mouse button. You
will see step one of many to make you bom completely recursive. You will
have to keep repeating this until after rectangling - nothing highlights
(that means your done). Keep in mind as you add to your assembly you
will have to revisit this and rectangle again.
The next thing is to paginate into several sheets since it won't all fit
on one. Furthermore you can have several on one sheet and add headers.
You'd have to know how to do this. It's not very intuitive. I have to
relearn it every time I do this.
Having all items assigned parameters makes life easier if its all done
up front. You can also filter out stuff you don't want for any reason.
I primarily use this bom to change parameters in one drawing straight
from the bom.
Maybe there is a simpler way - but this is a neat thing once you
understand it.
