Limitless Report customization in SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic

In SOLIDWORKS Electrical Schematic report generation is fully automatic. But as per customer requirements, report must be customized. In report customization, there is sort and break option. With the help of this we can sort our report as per manufacturer, location, book wise etc.

For many industries such as control panel, report customization needed as per feeder wise. So, for this requirement, we can create various locations as a feeder.
