BOM Attempt
BOM Attempt First let me say the experience was precipitated by failure to have adequately checked my own BOM listing but I found the entire order entry system confusing with terrible workflow. I loaded a BOM using the MouserPN | Qty option thinking the quantity field was the order quantity. To fix that I had to correct each quantity field one by one as the web app updated each item individually; I couldn't edit all 24 items then save the collectively I had to wait between each quantity entry. I had also made a Mouser part number error. There I found I could not correct the error on that page I could only delete the record of the wrong PN then go back to the load BOM page, then add this single row "BOM" to my project BOM. The "edit" page can't do a simple add, modify, delete like the rest of the universe, it indeed isn't an edit page at all. Somebody at Mouser would do well to compare that experience to say, changing an order at Amazon. These are not groundless criticisms, I have been computer programming for 50 years and some of my web app product is in US government service so this review is written entirely to benefit Mouser; to me its just more and thankless work. Mouser web applications are nearly reason enough to find another vendor.
