Greetings all, long time lurker here

Our company has just recently started using NX/TC from IDEAS/TDM and I have been tasked with setting everything up. This has been quite a bumpy process but right now I am having problems with our partslist template.

Seems I have gotten everything to work EXCEPT it will not bundle multiples of the same item into one row, it creates a new row for each one with it's own row number. I.E. if I have 25 #4-40 x .25 screws it creates 25 seperate rows with a QTY of 1 instead of listing the QTY as 25.

Anybody have any insight into helping me resolve this issue?

Thanks in advance.

pack the assembly, i.e. in assembly navigator select the assembly->MB3->pack all, and update parts list in the drafting.
 
Tried that, no dice. I wish it was something simple though...hopefully it still is.
