Include Multiple Manufacturers and Part Numbers #193

Closed dbeckwith01 closed 3 months ago

dbeckwith01 commented 6 months ago

What's the best way to include alternate manufacturers and part numbers for a part and have KiBoM place this is the BOM? For example I have MFG and MPN as fields on all parts but for some I want to add MFG1 and MPN1 in addition to MFG and MPN. I looked at using the REGEX but that seems more for including or excluding particular parts.

Thanks,

You can always just add this information as extra fields?

dbeckwith01 commented 5 months ago

Ok thank you for that. I assume I have to add those extra field names to the [COLUMN_ORDER] in bom.ini so they are written out?

They should be written out by default, COLUMN_ORDER is only if you want to rearrange them
