However, when you export the bill of materials (BoM) and pick and place files for manufacturing, the generic resistor or capacitor that you've chosen will be exported without an associated part number, so it won't match up with the actual parts you need to order and have assembled. On the upside, it means you can just make one generic resistor and set its value and pick the right footprint each time you want to add it to a design, without needing to worry about any extra work creating new schematic symbols for each manufacturer part.
You can do this, and it's fine if you're doing assembly yourself, but it's not the convention within Altium and it makes getting professional assembly done more complicated.
