Free Edition

Start with local BOM import, BOM Matrix review, RefDes visibility, AVL records, and simple inventory locations. Paid editions can later unlock higher local limits and governance workflows.

Simple operating flow

Three steps to organize the first product BOM.

1

Create local workspace

PartSpan stores product, part, BOM, AVL, inventory, and audit data in a local SQLite database.

2

Import BOM

Paste or upload a spreadsheet with internal PN, MPN, quantity, RefDes, and footprint.

3

Review and release

Confirm the BOM Matrix, then add inventory locations and approved alternates.

Download

Download the Free Desktop Alpha.

Install PartSpan as a local desktop app. BOM data stays on your computer in a local SQLite database. This alpha is unsigned, so macOS Gatekeeper or Windows SmartScreen may show a warning.

First launch

Opening an unsigned alpha build.

The alpha is not yet code-signed. Your OS will warn you the first time. This is expected — the steps below are only needed once.

macOS

  1. Open the DMG and drag PartSpan to Applications.
  2. Right-click (or Control-click) PartSpan.app and choose Open.
  3. If macOS still blocks it: open System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll down, and click Open Anyway next to the PartSpan message.
  4. If you see "PartSpan is damaged", run this once in Terminal: xattr -cr /Applications/PartSpan.app

中文:安裝後對 PartSpan.app 按右鍵選「打開」。若仍被擋,到「系統設定 → 隱私權與安全性」點「強制打開」。 出現「已損毀」訊息時,在終端機執行一次 xattr -cr /Applications/PartSpan.app

Windows

  1. Run the installer EXE.
  2. When SmartScreen shows "Windows protected your PC", click More info, then Run anyway.

中文:SmartScreen 出現「Windows 已保護您的電腦」時,點「其他資訊」再點「仍要執行」。
