Re: Parts Only BOM with API
Use swBomType enumeration - 2016 SOLIDWORKS API Help - swBomType_e Enumeration
And Insert Bom
Set swBomAnnotation = swExtension.InsertBomTable3(TemplateName, 0, 1, BomType, ActiveConfigName, False, swNumberingType_Detailed, True)

Re: Parts Only BOM with API
Thanks, although I'd already looked at this and it's not a setting for the PDM API as far as I can tell, only when using the API within SW... or have I misunderstood the docs??

Re: Parts Only BOM with API
Matt,
What are you looking for in the "Parts only" BOM, With EPDM you don't even need to open the assembly model. Use the Bill of materials, then select parts only. you can then export the BOM to excel if you want. What is the requirement for the BOM

Re: Parts Only BOM with API
Thanks (and sorry for the long delay in replying).
I am aware of this option within EPDM, but I wanted to achieve the same 'view' using the API. I managed to work around it by iterating through the BOM view and aggregating the results in my code to produce this 'parts only' view.
I just hoped there was already a built-in way to accomplish this.
