In every individual instance of a part I created a separate configuration (a letter) -and create a separate custom property corresponding to that letter. In the assembly, I call out each individual instance. - When I go to the drawing, it works just fine, I go to the individual BOM callout - go to Custom Properties, then select the letter ID I created. This works flawlessy for one view on the drawing - however in other views (that are projected views off the working view) - it doesn't work, the Letter ID custom property that I created doesn't show up. What gives? Any thoughts?

Different views can have different BoMs. BoMs have a property for grouping all configurations into a single line. Could the other views be sourcing their callouts from BoMs with configurations grouped?
