You can customize a BOM by changing the column order and sorting column data. When you make these customizations to a BOM that is "under construction" then save the BOM file, the same column configuration is applied to the next new BOM you open (even if you close and re-open NPI before opening a new BOM). By applying these customizations to new BOM files automatically, you will save valuable time when using similar columns and column sorting for multiple BOM files.

If you remove or add columns to a BOM and then save the BOM, those customizations are not applied to new BOM files you open.
