Managing your Bill of Materials in Inventor

A BOM (Bill of Materials) is a table that represents database information about the components in an assembly. This table includes quantities, names, costs, vendors, and other information required to build an assembly. In this webinar we discuss the basics of managing your BOM, adding virtual components, additional columns and BOM export capabilities within Autodesk Inventor®.

Hi I am new to Inventor. I cant seem to get my question answered. It is all good and well having a parts list for one pencil. The problem is that how do You ask the workshop to make TEN PENCILS. How do you get your parts list to reflect ten times the unit quantity or twenty times or thirty times the unit quantity?

We add a note to our drawings for required assembly quantities. Purchasing will then order or issue out the total number of pieces required. Hope that helps.
