Does anyone know how to get a quantity of AR (for "as required") to show up on a solidworks BOM? This would be for things like epoxy, solder, heatshrink, etc - consumables. I have our BOM templates set up to show things like our part #, description, etc. (all tied to PDM), and would like to add some as required items to PDM so that their qty's automatically show up as AR.

Thanks for the help.

Using an excle based BOM we added a units column that holds an A/R marker and the QTY shows as 1 for items such as loctite, solder, etc. Hope this helps
