Import a "Step" file and save as a single part

Can anybody help?

I have opened a "Step" file, downloaded from a supplier. Please see the attached file.

Once opened it is a assembly made up from several parts.

Once I insert this file and try to join it to another existing component, it only moves a single part and not the whole thing.

Is there something in Fusion 360 whereby I can create a "Derived" part and save it as a single part - similar to that in Inventor?

Many thanks in advance!!!

~~You could simply run Combine.~~

Or maybe not.

Why not use as a sub-assembly component?

Rigid Group the Components of the Sub Assembly.
