In some of our isometrics, there are several supports that are identical. They are each listed individually as separate items in the BOM. Most often these supports are a generic item like a support location, default pipe hanger, stanchion, etc. where the dimensions are identical for the supports. Such as piping placed along a rack where every support will be identical.
The only difference between these supports is the tag number. Even in the out-of-the-box version of OPIM, these supports are on separate lines in the BOM.
A user has asked if there is a setting that I can add to the configuration that will combine common supports onto the same line in the BOM?
Here is an image of a support that was copied several times along a run of pipe.
Hello Richard,

Also check other related wiki for gruping of support based on common tag name.
