How to replace pipe fittings in a pipe run

How to replace pipe fittings in a pipe run

How to replace pipe fittings in a pipe run

(OP)
The problem that I have is that my company lists all of the pipe fittings in their BOM on the dft drawing with our own nubmers. I thought that I could create a family of parts of the various fittings and then replace the fitting that SE auto inserts into a pipe run, but that is not possible. If I insert the same fitting as an independent part I can then REPLACE the fitting with the correct one from the fmaily of parts and it changes all of the fittings brought in automatically. This however messes up the pipe run bad.

Is there a way that I can use Xpresroute to automatically create my pipe runs and change the fittings to my companies specific part numbers and descriptions?
