[PCB_FORUM] Re: parts in schematic and BOM, but not brd

Hi,
How about creating a footprint of the holes and putting a Do Not Stuff property 
on the part?
This way the holes will be placed correctly and connected to the correct nets 
but no part is attached.
You could add silk to the holes to indicate proper connections and also 
assembly notes.

Subject: [PCB_FORUM] parts in schematic and BOM, but not brd

Hi group,
How can I get a part in the schematic to NOT package to the brd, but WILL be in 
the BOM?
I tried COMMENT_BODY=TRUE, but this excludes from the brd AND bom.

Also, If you add a part to schematic that will be "sky-wired" meaning hand 
solder leads to a hole on board or lead to wire to board etc...
We want the part in schematic and BOM, but not board.

Thanks in advance,
Mark

Using Concept schematic and Allegro board. V.16.3
