Hi Sean, rep_sortgroups.txt defines how part ID's are assigned to element and thus where items are listed in the BOM. There a multiple way to get where you want, please look at the below snippet for an example SORTGROUP = FLANGES SORTGROUP = FITTINGS Because the FLANGES sortgroup is listed before the FITTINGS sortgroup the items in the flange group will get a lower part id than the items in the fitting group. Now that we have set the basic order we can continue and specify whats going to what group. The rules are evaluated ion the order they are entered in rep_sortgroups and the first match determines the group. As it is easier to target the flanges than the more generic fittings you populate the flange group first SORTGROUP = FLANGES RULE = EC_CLASS = .*FLANGE".* So basically everything with the word FLANGE in the EC_CLASS will be put in the flange group. The folliwng will put all the remaining components in the fittings group SORTGROUP = FITTINGS RULE = IE_TYPE = .* Regards, Frank
