Hi,
I wonder how to create a BOM showing the volume of material I have to puchase for manufacturing?
Any help will be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Use Ctrl+X to cut the split BOM (or Ctrl+C to copy), then on the new page use Ctrl+V to paste.
If I recall correctly, there is no option in the right click menu for this.
What I described above is the only way I could get it to work.

Under the paragraph Splitting the BOM above, you state that the resultant split BOM can be copied and pasted. I don't seem to be able to get that to work. I need to put the second part on another sheet due to space restraints.
