On creation of a part i'm wondering if its possible to somehow automatically link the longest dimension I might input as the length, the widest as the width and so on with the part thickness without having to go into the part properties and select length, width, thickness myself and click on each dimension to populate a Bom as I have on the attached drawing.

This particular assembly Ive started with individual parts although I have many full assemblies I have to draw up for manufacture which have been created using multibody parts as well as weldments and individual features so its pretty confusing. Im trying to eliminate human error by not having to manually input information into the bom.

Ideally I would like the bom to be set out as I have it on the drawing

Does anybody know how I might go about this?
