Altium how to add part choice that can't be search

Artarka , 12-16-2025, 11:27 AM
Hi all,
I have trouble managing my component library

I have Altium 365 and would like to add "[KamCap HT-5R5-Z105VYE08](https://www.kamcappower.com/products/high-temperature-5.5v-super-capacitors/)" to my component's part choice.

However it was not searchable on Altium's default part list. (see screenshot)

I have multiple BOMs that use this component, hence I don't want to "add custom solution" on each BOM.
Anyone have any advice how to add a manual part choice to a component?

Regards,
Artarka

But is it an alternative or your standard part?
If it is your standard, then why did you not add that data to the component itself?

thats exactly what I wanted to do. (the part's choice thing is within component itself)
However Altium is too automised/integrated, this choice isn't within their massive list.
I would like to add it manually but don't know how to.
