Inserting bounding box dimensions into BOM

I found the feature script for "Aligned Bounding Box" which creates a variables table like the one shown below. How do I then get these values inserted into a BOM?
Name | Variable type | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
box1_X | Unspecified | 169.941 in | |
box1_Y | Unspecified | 5.5 in | |
box1_Z | Unspecified | 11.25 in |

You can't… Those data from your custom table (featurescript) live only inside the partstudio, I don't think you can bring them into the assembly/BOM
you can copy and modify the feature and have the feature set a custom property in your parts, and then add that custom property to your BOM.
It would require a small bit of featurescript knowledge to achieve
