    Just moved up to SW2006 SP2 and inserted a BOM in an assy drawing, I
    notice that the column header for the property ' QTY ' now includes
    the configuration name as well. How do I prevent this, my
    configurations are usually 'extended' 'raised' etc and in general
    comprise identical quantities. I cannot see the need for this
    'improvement.

    Rename the column QTY without a period

  4. I changed my template to remove the period, however, it still adds the
    configuration when I add a BOM and it still shows the period after
    QTY??? I did find that if I edit the header after BOM insertion to
    remove the period it works. Is this the behavior that you see?

    Thanks

    I found this as well, I have to change the column heading each time it
    is inserted.

    I suppose I haven't tried that.
