Bill of Material - BOM Part Numbers with Leading Zeros

Leading zeros can be dropped from Mfr Part Numbers in Excel if the part number is numeric and the cells in the Excel worksheet column are formatted as General, which is the default format in Excel. To preserve the leading zeros format the cells in the Excel template as text.

Example:  Molex P/N 0039281043

Try the Generic XLS File Format to preserve leading zeros in part numbers. 

You can find example BOM templates in the Parts Download.



That's it !
