Hi everyone. I have looked through both the manual and chief delphi, and I cannot find anywhere that specifies what we must name our BOM (Last year, it clearly stated that the name must be FRCXXXX_EventName where XXXX was the 4-digit team number.)
Is there a certain name we must give to the file, or should we just follow the same format as last year?
Kevin,
The method of storage and the naming convention are still in discussion. Please watch Team Updates.
So I searched and didn’t find another answer to this question from last year, or this year, and I don’t remember what we did last year, and I can’t find any direction for this year. Is there a filenaming convention for the BOM, and where can I find it?
Actually from the rule, it appears we don’t need to submit it this year. Is that correct?
We’re just showing it to the inspectors this time; no collection (i.e. no flash drive virus epidemic). In fact, the FIRST format in general is only strongly recommended this year, so I think you’re good.
…But Rookies/everyone, please be nice to your inspectors and expedite your inspection process by offering the standardized format.
Gary,
You only need to have it displayed during inspection. A printed copy would be ideal but not required. They will not be collected during this season under the current rules.
