Sort BOM Table as per Model Tree

Go to Table - Repeat Region - Fix index - Fix then manually reorder in the position you wish. by selecting the index number and changing them to the correct order.
 
You can basically get the same order as in the model tree if you name the models accordingly and then sort the BOM by model names. But, if you change the order in the model tree, BOM order will not change automatically, since the names will stay the same,unless you rename the models everytime you reorder them in the model tree - here you need to decide whether it is better to fix the BOM once, as mjk4134 in previous post wrote, or you fiddle with BOM sort order and renaming the models.
 
I have to admit that I have seen some friggin stupid suggestions in boards from time to time but this is truly a case of the legally blind pretending to be king of the totally blind.

It is bloody easy to make the BoM table match the model tree:

delete ALL sort orders
Don't use the attribute "No duplicates"
