Scope

Select the scope of the bill of materials. The scope can cover the entire design, or the selected schematic folders and pages.

Mode

Include either instances or occurrences. Capture automatically sets this option based on the project type.

Line Item Definition

Header

Specify a header that Capture inserts on each page. If this is left blank, Capture assumes there is no header.

For example, "Item\tQuantity\tPart" creates a header that displays column entries of "Item", "Quantity", and "Part" each separated by a tab character.

Combined property string

Specify the properties that must match for Capture to group them in the bill of materials. Typically, this text box should be set to "{Value}" (without the quotation marks).

To insert a tab, use the \t character sequence. For example, "{Reference}\t{Value}" prints a part's reference, a tab character, and the part's value.

To create separate listings for 100V and 25V .01uF capacitors, for example, set the Part Value combined property string to "{Value} {Voltage}" (without the quotation marks), where Voltage is a user property in which you store the appropriate voltage values.

Place each part entry on a separate line

Specify that each part entry appears on a separate line in the bill of materials report file. When this option is selected, the quantity of parts sharing the same Part Value appear on one line, then each part is listed below. When this option is not selected, all the parts with the same Part Value are listed on one line.
