Cut List issues

Hello.

I am wondering if anyone has come across this slight problem I have. We are using cutlist property infomation in BOM's which is easy to do with Weldments and Multibodied sheetmetal parts, by filling in the information in the cutlist property fields.

My first problem occurs when I have a multi-bodied part which isn't constructed as above, so just bodies. Lets say a plate fabrication, the bodies just show as bodies and I can't see a way to force these bodies into a cutlist, And therefore can not fill out cutlist properties to filter through to my BOM's as body properties aren't the same as cutlist properties.

Secondly is there anyway I can stop a cutlist starting in a single bodied sheet metal part.

Any Ideas
