    Plant 3d Reports

    Major issue with the reports...

     

    In one drawing I have 2 styles of tanks.  2205 model and 2805 model.

    Short Discription : Tank

    Long Description : Aquacare 2205

    Long Description : Aquacare 2805

     

    with the report creator, it would make sense that under the title "Tank"

    there would be TWO lines

     

    2Aquacare 2205

    4Aquacare 2805

     

    but for some reason ?!?!

     

    6Aquacare 2205

     

    Do I seriously have to have a single short description for EACH and every tank style?

     

    this still applies to reducers and most likely ells aswell...

     

    edit : it seems to if I add a nozzle the tanks are seperated... but these tanks do NOT HAVE NOZZLES.

    they have a different long discription.  

     

    So it seems like if the short description is the same - they all must be identical?!  even when they have different long descriptions?

    It's bad configuration of grouping. Revise it. In your case the program grouping only with short description, is necessary to add another level of group "Long description". 

    In the "Edit Layout" down part of screen.

    Thank you!  I managed to figure out the tanks... now the test is for the reduction bushings to see if that sorts properly.
