IV11 SP2 - Can I sort The BOM

[Anonymous]

Can I sort the BOM (Not the Parts List) via the API? (Sorting the parts list I can already do)

Sorry, sorting of the BOM is currently not supported in the API.

OK, How do we sort (correctly) the Dwg No column in the parts list
Sorting the BOM (manually) by Dwg No, renumber items, then sort the IDW Parts List by item number (manually or via API) is a half way workaround.
Any ideas?
The BOM sorts correctly on the Dwg No column, BUT Parts Lists do not work on the Dwg No column...

Do you mean the Part Number column? If not, could you elaborate? And I'm not
sure what you mean by PartsList not being able to sort the Dwg No column.
Could you explain?

See thread

The API provides a way to reposition parts list rows
(PartsListRow.Reposition method). So if you are able to arrive at the
correct order of part numbers, you should be able to simulate a sort using
this method.
