In the Report Definition file you can define a new section to allow the filtering of the fields in the BOM so all components will show on the BOM but allow some fields to be filtered out.

For Example:

The following line would export the SIZE2 for all components except for bolts. But all other fields will display.

COLUMN = 7 : R : SIZE2 : EXCLUDE = IE_TYPE=CT_BOLT

Avoidance

Currently there is no way to filter out the size for just bolts but the BOM report can be setup to have a separate bolt section that will mix in with the full BOM.

Removed bolts from the FLD report

REPORT = FLD

# this to include only field items

INCLUDE = IE_FIELD=1

EXCLUDE = IE_TYPE=CT_WELD|CT_BOLT

Create a new report section that is a copy of the FLD report. Rename the report to blt and remove the header text.

REPORT = blt

# this to include only field items

INCLUDE = IE_TYPE=CT_BOLT|IE_FIELD=1

COLUMN = 3: R : PARTID

COLUMN = 19: R : QUANTITY

COLUMN = 7: R : SIZE1

COLUMN = 7: R :

COLUMN = 2: :

COLUMN = 60: W : IE_DESCRIPT

GROUP = PARTID

SORT = PARTID:N

SEP = @

SORTHEADERS = 1

END

Add the blt section under the fld section.

REPORT = combi

WRITE = shp

TEXT = @

TEXT = @

WRITE = fld

WRITE = blt

NODE = 60

END
