It's my understanding that the order in which the BOM is created is the
order that the parts are listed in the Feature Manager tree. Why is it that
I have a few different smart fasteners in the assembly some have a top stack
LW at first they were shown under the fastener in the BOM, now they have
moved to the bottom of the  BOM list and all my part numbers are in a
different order. This change happened after I made some changes to the
fasteners.

Thanks

Do a RMB on the BOM and then properties/control, and see if the checkbox is
checked for "Row numbers follow assembly ordering."  It sounds like it isn't
because without that checked, a some changes in parts will cause the BOM to
put them at the bottom.

I am not sure about Smart Fastners but this is a known problem with assembly
patterns and the BOM.
