Presumably this is not best practice, otherwise it would be easy, but I'd like to include bulk items (glue, paint, etc.) in the BoM. I've tried putting it into the model as an empty assembly (i.e. there is an empty sub-assembly in the model called "loctite sdfkljjlk", with the appropriate metadata in M-files), but this doesn't seem to show up - and yes, I have ticked the box in Alibre saying "treat as part in boM when used as a subassembly".
any suggestions on why this doesn't work? Any ideas on how I can achieve this?
Presumably I could put it in as a manual entry in the BoM, but that doesn't appeal much because it means retyping all the metadata each time... is there a better way?
