hi all,

its Resistoflex catalog

normally i used small pipe size 1"-6"

i just notice in large size the cut to (pipe length) not shown same as small size.

on BOM the large pipe shown on one raw, otherwise on small size shown separately on BOM (and this what i need)

@ahmad.natour

A few questions:

1. are you using the same isostyle in each example? If not it might be the table settings that need to be changed.

2. The Report length with the 'Cut To' suffix is only applied to fixed length pipes. Are your large diameter pipes in the catalog and spec marked as fixed length pipes?

hi @Michiel.Valcke

thank you for tips, this option already considered.

hi @lauri_barnhart

i found the solution,

when you add new size to the catalog, the new size will not be added to the cut to automatically, you need to open the spec editor, then you chose the pipe, then click the edit parts as shown in the photo attached, then check tick box's where the size you need , and it's better to choose all of them.

thank you
