BOM column header

I would like to change the contents of the column header of a BOM in a drawing.
Especially I would like to change Part number to something shorter (which fits more in width to a simple number up to 3 digits) - e.g. Part #

Is this possible?

Thanks for any hint,
Thomas

    You have to go to the company settings and there to the custom properties. Here you can change the displayed names of all properties.

    HI Glen, Are you sure about that? Didn't find the option. 

  • glen_dewsburyglen_dewsbury Member Posts: 1,127 PRO
    Yes. I did made the changes when I had a pro account and asked the same from a couple of companies I do contract work for.
    My personal account is the free version now and this is not offered as an option.

    You're right. 
    Apparently my plan is called "standard". 

  • glen_dewsburyglen_dewsbury Member Posts: 1,127 PRO
    @stvnvl_8501 Had to look up standard. Never worked with it. But it's there under company admin tools.
