Entity Properties
The BOM object directly provides all the information of the Header Item , for instance the Name of the according root item.
These are all the properties declared with simple names (not starting with the prefix ‘Bom_’).
At least following standard properties should always be available: _Name.
All the other properties are custom properties that can be displayed in both the BOM Tab and the Item Tab.
For example Description, _Category or all the other dynamically generated members of a powerVault File or powerVault Item.
BOM Properties
This are all the properties with the prefix ‘Bom_’, like e.g. Bom_Number, Bom_PositionNumber, Bom_Unit, …
In contrast to BomRows , the BOM object can only provide custom properties and there are no standard properties at all!
BOM properties can only be displayed in the BOM Tab.
