DERIVED MULTIBODY PARTS

I have created a 25 multibody part in inventor 2020. - using windows 10 professional

there is 2 parts that have about 10 different possible configs. and one part that has 6 different configs.

when i derive the parts there are only solid bodies and no actual features, i have named all the solid bodies, so when i select the master 25 multibody part and use a different config, then the bodies that are being used will appear.

what i am trying to do is make inventor see that when there is "X" solid body, "XY" solid body and "XZ" solid body then the description will be SIZE, LENGTH, AND WIDTH (these are parameters thru the derive parameter selection menu), but i am having a hard time making the other part autofill with the solid body that i am needing. 

my question is how would i make a rule telling inventor when  X" solid body, "XY" solid body and "XZ" solid body are present then "X" solid body = description, "XY" solid body = description and "XZ" solid body= description.

All 25 bodies are named I am deriving each part out so the patterns that are involved with the part go with it.....there are 3 parts to the main assembly... i am going to have to set it up so this model goes out as a template. with the main 3 parts being derived and with its description, but of course you know when the derive part is done it has a solid name (default solid1).... what i had did derived all the parts that are possible to the ipt that i saved and everytime i change the configuration of the part the solids change names everytime..... i am trying to write a rule saying that if i see this solid name then it equals this description, for each part. 

 

thanks for your reply and i hope i explained enough for you to get the point to the point that i am trying to get to
