Bill of Material 2011
Where is the bill of materials template? According to the manual, it is at http://www.usfirst.org/frc/competitionmanual Do you think it is just not posted yet or is the link wrong?

Re: Bill of Material 2011
I would imagine that nothing would have change concerning the BOM. I would write as normal and change it should a new template appear.

Re: Bill of Material 2011
There is already a thread fro this and last year they did not post the new template until the 4th week late.

Re: Bill of Material 2011
Thank you all. Sorry, I didn't see the other thread and it must not have been posted yet when I posted this.

Re: Bill of Material 2011
Last year there was some direction somewhere about naming convention for the BOM file; it must have been FRCXXXX(team number)_(Event Location).xls, since ours was named FRC2973_Westwego.xls for the Bayou Regional. I can't find the directions from last year and I don't see them anywhere this year. Can someone point me towards it?

Re: Bill of Material 2011
Gary,
So far no specific naming convention has been mentioned in the manual. I'm hoping one of the next few updates will add it back in. |

Re: Bill of Material 2011
I'm hoping that FIRST publishes an example of what they expect. Perhaps one from an exemplary 2010 team...
Many teams have many ideas as to what a BOM should look like. This is particularly true of teams without engineering support. JMHO... |

Re: Bill of Material 2011
I like that they put the KOP in for us, but hate that they parted out the Cimple gearbox, although it is a slight advantage if there are common parts

Re: Bill of Material 2011
I bet a significant number of teams will be using those 12t pinions and 56t output gears in interesting places this year.

Re: Bill of Material 2011
Does anybody know what to do about items that are in the KOP but are not on the sheet "KOP Items" in the Bill of Materials. Should they not be listed anywhere, or should they go under the "Non-KOP Items" sheet with source being KOP and price of $0.00?
Also, does anybody know whether washers and e-clips get counted in the BOM? |
