Summary

In ActiveBOM, when the design includes unmanaged components, these components are deemed to be the same when the parameters enabled in the Component Grouping dialog have the same values. The components are grouped when the BomDoc is set to either the Base or the Consolidated view mode. The values shown above are the defaults, these can not be changed.

  • Managed components are always grouped by ItemID.
  • To change the grouping for a custom BOM, use the Group by button in the BomDoc, or the use the Column grouping feature in the Report Manager.
