If you were unable to attend the July 19th live ActiveBOM® webinar, you can view the the presentation slides and video recording at your convenience. If you prefer, you can also review the summary below for the session highlights. I briefly discussed some of the challenges design engineers encounter as they search for, select and source parts for designs. Then, I introduced ActiveBOM and provided a demonstration, followed by a summary and Q&A
The most successful PCB designs a result from practice, but for your PCB to function as intended, you also need to test your design. By testing the electronic components of your board before manufacturing you can be sure that it will perform as you intended with your design. Schematic simulation does not guarantee the functionality, reliability or even manufacturability of your design. Applying good design for manufacturing (DFM) practices will

Requirements Portal's Document Export wizard is your go-to for whipping up editable Microsoft Word *.docx files straight from your requirements and V&V activities. You can use predefined templates or upload your own templates. The wizard is fueled by the Python-Docx-Template library, which, in turn, leverages the Jinja Templating Engine. This dynamic duo allows you to craft custom templates…
Defining Custom Fields Requirements Portal already offers a great variety of columns to describe your Requirements. However, if your use-case requires a specific column with a specific name, you can add additional columns called Custom Fields or Custom Columns. Workspace Administrators can review defined custom fields and create new ones on the Settings – Custom Fields page (accessed by clicking…
The Workspace provides an advanced, manufacturing-oriented CAD-centric view of the project. This management interface offers Design, Tasks, and History views options, plus more: Design – display and navigate source project design documents, view design object properties and place review comments. This view uses the Web Viewer interface to present your design across five distinct data sub-views,…
The project Design Reviews page is the central location for all project stakeholders to perform and manage structured reviews of a Workspace design project. The interface allows the creation, access and management of Design Review instances by any Workspace member, which in turn can be assigned to other Workspace members as Reviewers. The Design Review creator (the Initiator) can add attachments…
The BOM Portal’s Consolidated BOM mode allows you to create a procurement-orientated BOM document from multiple engineering BOMs, which unifies the parts requirements for delivering a complete product – typically based on multiple PCBs, modules, or functional sub-sections. It replaces the need to aggregate multiple BOM lists through spreadsheets or other manual means while calculating parts…
The BOM Portal interface provides options and features that allow you to set up the system to match your specific needs for the current Managed BOM. These include configuring the sourced supplier data to your company's requirements, and working with the BOM listing in a manner that suits your processes. BOM Settings The BOM Settings window, opened from the BOM Settings option in the main menu,…
The BOM Portal will automatically analyze a Managed BOM document to detect any issues in BOM Item lines, based on their logical structure and the part’s manufacturer and supplier data. These include invalid part numbers, deprecated or low-stock items, non-compliant parts, and much more. BOM line item errors and warnings are summarized by the listing's right-most column icons. Hover over an icon…
Requirements Portal has always prided itself in the fact that it reduces the need to manage documentation by housing and connecting the engineering data which typically resides in different document types belonging to different software tools. However, many of users still need to generate documentation for activities such as certification and change control, which should be done quickly with no…
