BOM, subassembly part quantities.

BOM, subassembly part quantities.

BOM, subassembly part quantities.

(OP)
In a BOM of type "Indented Assemblies," parts within subassemblies show quantities per subassembly, not total quantity per project (top-level assembly).  Can that be changed?  I want to see quantities of each part per top-level assembly.  For example

There are two subassembly B's inside main assembly A.  Each subassembly B contains these parts:

(2) Part C
(3) Part D

The "Indented Assemblies" BOM Displays this:

(2) Subassembly A
   (2) Part C
   (3) Part D

This is what I want:

(2) Subassembly A
(4) Part C
(6) Part D


Another way to accomplish this would be to change the BOM to type "Parts Only"; this would get me the desired part quantities, but what if I want to show subassembly A in the BOM?

Help?  Thanks,

Brian
