[PCB_FORUM] Re: Best way to do a Do Not Install... list for OrCAD CIS

Gene,

We make up a part number "No_Pop" with
a description in our MRP system of " Parts that are not place on the board" and
assign it to the No pop parts.

In the BOM extraction, we get:

P/N      Description                       Ref

C-052, Cap, .001uf, 0603, C80-C90, C101

R-100, Resistor, 50 ohms, 0402,  R1, R3, R4

NO_POP, Parts that are not place on the board, C100, C900, R2, R5, U5 etc.

This provides a cross check to the CM that the empty spots
are really supposed to be that way.

BOM parts in CIS. Anybody have any suggestions on how you do this. Some may call these DNI or Do Not Place (DNP) lists.
    Perhaps variant lists are the best way, but I am looking for
    suggestions.
