    Hi Alex,

    Yes, this is definitly possible with SKILL. Fairly easy, in fact.

    But before you go writing any code, perhaps a BOM report that you want is already available, or can be created by you. First, check Tools > Quick Reports to see if any of those are what you want. If not, using Tools > Reports you can make a custom report (like a BOM).

    Let us know how that goes.
