I have a pneumatic fitting in which the pipe connector canrotatearound the main body of the fitting. I have createddifferentconfigurations in the model for each orientation I want touse. Theorientation of the pipe connector does not change the partnumberso I have made the part number not configuration specific intheproperties.
Now I have got an assembly with two of these fittings, eachone ina different orientation and therefore configuration, and whenIcreate a BOM of the assembly I get an entry for each of thesepartsfor quantity one instead of one entry for quantity 2. If I putthemin the same configuration I get one entry with quantity 2. Isitpossible to get them display as one entry if the parts areindifferent configurations?
