Okay, here goes...
I have an existing assembly, all numbered according to company standards:
1-10 sub assemblies
11-59 details
60-69 orings
70-80 hardware
90+ purchased parts
Now to streamline the assembly procedure, the company
would like to have the sections that are on the drawing
to be moved to different sheets (Sheet 1 is the start of
the asembly procedure). The item balloons are to remain the
same; the BOM on EACH sheet is to show only those parts
which are only used on that particular sheet
(e.g. only items 1-4, 11,13,16, and 60 are on sheet 1)
If I use pagination I automatically get the first sheet with the BOM showing only those parts that are SEEN in sheet 1.
However, when I go to sheet two, the sections are okay, the balloons are okay, but the BOM does not show ALL the parts needed for sheet 2 (because each sheet shows x number of lines in the BOM).
POINT TWO: Item 5, for instance isn't seen until sheet 4, but it keeps showing up in the BOM on sheet 2.
QUESTION:
Is there a way to...
1) split the BOM in different places so as the split bom regions can be placed in the correct(respective) sheet?
2) Once split properly, any future changes to parts (adding/deleting) will automatically go the respective spot on the drawing (BOM)
CRITERIA: I CANNOT RE-NUMBER THE PARTS! THAT WOULD CAUSE A MAJOR HEADACHE IN DATABASE BOOKKEEPING
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE
