BOM View For

Specifies that you want to edit properties based on a BOM view for the currently active document. The name of the active document is displayed in the control text string so you know which document you are editing. If you select this option and click the OK button, the active document is displayed in the Property Manager dialog box. This option is only available when you have a document opened.

If you use this option with a new file all of the fields on the Property Manager dialog box will be read-only.  Therefore, you must save a file before using this option in Solid Edge.
