Bom Structure

Hi

 

I have an assemblies with several sub-assemblies.

 

In some cases I want to set the sub-assemblies to "Reference" or "Phantom" in the BOM, while in other cases I want them to be "Normal".

 

However, if I change the status for one assembly somewhere, this will the status for the assembly everywhere.

 

Any suggestions?

 

 

Running IV2014. (Soon to update to IV2015.)

 

Regards

Welcome to the forum!

If you change the status in the BOM then it will change everywhere, like you noticed already.
If you right-click on a sub-assembly in the main assembly there is an option for "BOM-structure" where you can set that particular sub to "reference".
(phantom is not an option though)

Hope that helps.
