BOM item qty

Anonymous
Not applicable

So I build tanks at work using inventor 2015. I would like to do a LOD for each side that includes the side sheet frame generated components that apply to that side and so on. But when creating a BOM in a drawing of that side sheet it calls out all items, that’s fine. I balloon the items i want and just do balloon items only. The problem comes along when I balloon something from frame generator. say that side sheet only shows 3 side stiffeners ( like 2x2 angle ) but there’s 10 in the entire assembly, well in the qty it reads out as 10. is there anyway to be able to have only the LOD qty added or to get a BOM just for that LOD.

 

Please any help would be great

Thank you

So I took some shots of what I’m doing. so i show the main tank assembly, then the level of detail i did for a side sheet that i want to have a drawing for. In that drawing I want to call out the stiffeners. So i click parts list pick my assembly balloon my items pick show balloon items only option so I don’t get all the background stuff i do not want and it leaves me with the three things i ballooned. but as you see it shows item one as having the qty of 2, 5 having 6 and 11 having 4. Its double what it should be in this case because the opposite side has the same stiffeners and side sheet

 

It only lets me add three files so ill post agin with a couple more
