is there a way to add formulas to the bom. We want to have a
raw material weight on the bom. Our company standard is fininshed
machined weight x 35% to get raw material weight.
I would suggest start using SolidWorks BOM Tables. If a
quantity of a part change within an Excel BOM that has equations
you will have to remember to double click on the BOM to update the
qty.
Right click on the column (Top part/line)-> Equation ->Equation Editor and add
by click material qty and manually "* 1.35"
