Background

There is a situation where the Bill of Materials must be modified by adding lines to all components. The benefit of it is to make the viewing more convenient. Furthermore, the standard format of Bill of Materials has no line for every component.
         

Steps to Accomplish

  1. Open report.def file.
  2. Add the following values in Shop, Field, and Combi Report

  3. Open rep_sortgroup.txt file and add the following values.
  4. Generate the isometrics to verify the result.
  5. Based on the image above (number 4), Part ID 2 and 3 are not separated by line. To make it happen, open rep_sortgroup.txt file and add the following values.
    SORTGROUP = ELBOW
    HEADER = ________________________________________________
    RULE = IE_TYPE=CT_ELBOW
  6. Regenerate the isometrics to review the outcome.
