Compare two Boms and notification

[ChrisCollinson]

Hi,

Is there a way to compare two boms at different revisions/iterations

Is there a way to have a sbscription on an assembly and have a notification if a part in that assy changes?

1- WC10 has a very nice BOM compare tool but WTParts in Windchill don't have AsStored configuration. You can compare two different lifecycle states but not two revisions. The ideal situation is to capture a baseline of a release of a BOM. This baseline can then be compared to the latest BOM.

2- I don't thnk this is possible OOTB. It would be a significant listener to wait for changes to ANY component to change I'm guessing.

In 10.1 m020 you can select the revision and iteration to compare.
