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?

box1_Y

5.5 in

box1_Z

    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
