Does anyone have any ideas on showing a component/assembly in multiple positions but only counting them once in the BOM.
I am using reference sets to show the components/assembly in the different positions, but would like to only count them once in the BOM.

Thanks cowski...
I have created separate arrangement's to demonstrate different positions for the component/assembly, but now I want to be able to show the effect of the linked features in different positions in the parent body....for instance a few shcs to allow the component/assembly to be assembled in this different postiion. The "pocket design" command doesn't put them in to the parent body in the alternate postiion

I was able to accomplish what I asked...but I had to created and Boolean the linked bodies manually. The "pocket design" command in the progessive die wizard would n't do it

That would really be something if someone actually mentioned the progressive die wizard here...
