Equivalent of an Empty Representation in Creo for large assembly BOM drawings

Back when I was using Creo, assemblies could be set to an Empty representation.  This was highly useful for making drawings with simply a BOM for EXTREMELY large assemblies if there was no need to show the geometry on the drawing, such as top level machine BOMs.  I am currently running SolidWorks 2022.  I do not see any new configurations or features that equate to being able to use a component in this nearly infinitely lightweight configuration.  Is there anything similar in newer versions of SolidWorks, or would this make a decent enhancement request if it has never been made?
