It may be desirable to create custom templates for Bill of Materials tables to fit individual needs and requirements. The Template option is available on the Create BOM or Edit Template dialog box. Selection of the Template option opens the selected BOM template for editing.  

Once the BOM has been defined, right-click on the table and select Save as Template from the resulting pop-up menu. Enter an appropriate file name and choose OK to save the new template.  

The next time the Bill of Materials option is selected from the Create menu, the new BOM template will be displayed for selection, along with the default template.

BOM Template Sorted By Part Number

1. Create your BOM Template by selecting the Template option in the Create Bill of Materials dialog.
2. Right-click the created Template and select Properties.
3. Click the toggle "Use custom sort rules" and click the Custom button.
4. Under Sort By, select Part Number and click OK to the two dialogs.
5. Now you can right-click your Template and select Save As Template.
