Integrated Libraries, User Parameters and BOM Generation
« on: February 24, 2014, 01:21:10 pm »
It seems like there should be a way to do this, as I see templates for BOMs that allow it, but I can't get anything to work.

I have and Integrated Library.  I have Manuf, ManufNumber, Supplier, etc. fields in User Parameters.  I can't get any of these fields to show up in my output job.  There are include Parameters from Vault and Include Parameters from DB, but no Include parameters from Integrated Library. 

Maybe this is a situation where I'm doing something totally wrong, not one where Altium is punishing me for not jumping on the Vault bandwagon.  With Supplier info and other things in my libraries, it just seems like I should be able to get it out SOMEHOW.  |O

I need to just post a request for help on this forum before I search at all.  Without fail, the next thing I read after posting here is the answer.  I've looked at this for a couple days and there is one piece that I had been missing:

PROJECT BOM, NOT PCB BOM.

If someone else is trying to do the same, maybe this will help.
