Topic:   Line cost of an assembly

Dear Support,

I don’t know if someone before noticed the following, anyway I prefer to ask.
From the “Assemblies” menu, entering the “Edit part list” function from any of the present assemblies, the last column reports the label “Cost each”. It seems it refers to the cost “per unit of measure (UOM)”, already visible inside the properties of the single component. But, in my opinion, when you browse an assembly list, a more effective information would be the “price per row”, i.e. the UOM cost times the number of pieces in that line.

Thank you
Simone

The 'Edit Parts List' window is just for "editing" parts lists. It's not a report as such.

Instead of selecting the "Edit Parts List" option you can choose the "View MultiLevel Parts List/BOM" option. This option is for viewing (not editing) and this does show price each and price per row as well as the total for the whole assembly.

Also. When viewing the "Edit parts List" you can leave the editing view and switch to the viewing view by clicking the magnifying glass button to the right of the edit window.

Thanks for the information, that works perfect.

Yeah. The thing about the editor is that you don't see the whole multilevel assembly all on one screenful. It allows you to navigate up and down the levels of sub assemblies. If you edit a sub assembly then that change is automatically updated into every other parent that uses the same sub assembly.

This editor is one of the best I've seen even compared to bigger mrp systems.

But to see the whole thing through all levels you switch to the viewer.

Dumbass here. I am using V5.0.128.0. I do not get the "View MultiLevel Parts List/BOM" option. I cannot locate this option anywhere. The option presented is "View Indented PartsList/BOM". These are no prices visible when I select this. Can someone point out where I need to place my fat fingers please?

Love this program, but doing a costed BOM is bit of a challenge.

I can export CSV files and do it in excel with Lookup, but that seems a lot of work for information that is already in the database.

From "View Indented PartsList/BOM", click the [Menu] button. ( The [Menu] button looks like 3 horizontal lines; I've heard this menu symbol called the "hamburger menu" symbol in Android. )

Then, click [Show/Hide Columns] for all sorts of interesting viewing and printing options.
