VX Bom Format Editor
File
Export
Create HTML/Web-Link Document
This editor is used to define the format of the Bill of Materials (BOM) list that is created and exported during the Export HTML/Web Document command. The editor is displayed when the Bom Format button on the HTML Page Generation Form is selected. The attributes used to define the BOM format are retrieved from those currently defined in the Part Attributes Form for the active part being exported.
Set the BOM report scope to either Assembly or Component.
Use the Add, Edit or Remove buttons to define the format of the selected attributes (see below for more details).
Define the count of separator rows (or accept the default values).
Pick the Save to File button to save (or load) the attribute format to a file for later use (optional).
Pick OK to accept the BOM format.

Assembly
Use this menu to set the BOM report scope to either Assembly or Component.
Assembly - The active part and its components (if any) are reported.
Component - Only the active component is reported
List
This list shows the attributes that have been selected for the BOM format. The available attributes are those shown on the Part Attributes Form. Each record in the list contains information about the attribute value and description (i.e., header) including character length and justification.
The attribute value/description is shown first and then followed by the total value/description. Note that the total value/description is only displayed for the cost and quantity attributes. Use the Add, Edit, and Remove buttons for selecting and defining the attributes (see below).
Add
Displays the BOM Field Definition Form. Use this form to select an attribute and define its format in the BOM.
Edit
Select an attribute from the list and then pick the Edit button. The BOM Field Definition Form is displayed with the selected attribute.
Remove
Removes an attribute from the list.


Use the up and down arrow buttons to move to the previous or next attribute selection in the list.
