The BOM Loader maps aPriori fields to column headings read in from a comma-separated values (CSV) file, so you can generate and populate aPriori components and rollups with multiple types of cost data, including quoted costs, actual costs, user defined costs, and even cost estimates constructed outside of aPriori, such as from a spreadsheet model. You can also use the BOM loader to import lists of purchased parts and their cost data, providing the ability to load a complete parts catalog. This module is licensed separately.
