BOM

BOM Export Feature

Download the system BOM list in PDF or spreadsheet format and send it to your SolarEdge supplier when placing an order – or when adding it to an existing external BOM.

 

We’ve added the ability write notes in the BOM itself, which will then be displayed in the exported BOM list.

 

Once a custom item is added to the site, it will be saved in the drop-down menu for use in future projects, along with its price and associated notes.

 

Rotating Polygons

You can now rotate a polygon drawn in the ‘Site Modeling’ tab.

 

bullet Select all facets and drag the cursor over them

bullet Rotate multiple polygons by selecting them altogether

bullet Select all polygons onsite using CTRL+A and then rotate them together

 

As always, you can rotate obstacles.
