Bom table of family table instances

Question

‘Hello to everyone,I would like to know if with Creo Parametric there is a way to automatically fill in a BOM table like the one shown in the attached picture. The assembly has three instances, each with a different configuration. Some components are in common, some are specific for one configuration. The drawing is an exploded view of the generic that shows every possible component. The three columns on the left should be automatically populated with the quantity, if any, for every component in each of the three configurations. Does anybody have a suggestion on how to achieve this?Thank you’Roberto Pancera & Andrea MInoniThis thread is inactive and closed by the PTC Community Management Team.

First, you'll want each instance declared as a top model to the drawing. If you have views or regions of them, this is already done, if not, in the Layout tab, Drawing Models > Add Model to add them.

Make the repeat region with extra columns for the quantity-in-this-instance. Then the command you want to populate these columns is (Table tab) Repeat Region > Column Model/Rep.
