Default Consolidating information

Apply Autofilter to your quantity column and from the filter pull-down
select Custom | Not Equal to | 0 PIECES. The offending rows will now be
hidden.

Hope this helps.

I have eleven different sub assemblies customers can choose from. The
customer can choose 1 to 3 of those sub assemblies to complete the final
assembly. Is there a way to consolidate the information when I do a total
materials used page so I don't have a bunch of 0's taking up a lot of
space?

This is what I'm looking for:

Before
SUSPENSION KIT
MATERIAL QUANTITY UNIT
Hendrickson AA230L 0 PIECES
Hendrickson AA230T 0 PIECES
Hendrickson AA250L 0 PIECES
Hendrickson AA250T 2 PIECES
Hendrickson AA300L 0 PIECES
Hendrickson AA300T 0 PIECES
Hendrickson AANT23K 0 PIECES
Hendrickson PARALIFT 1 PIECES
Hutchens 49" TANDEM 0 PIECES
Hutchens 49" TRI AXLE 0 PIECES
Hutchens 57.5" TRI AXLE 0 PIECES

After
SUSPENSION KIT
MATERIAL QUANTITY UNIT
Hendrickson AA250T 2 PIECES
Hendrickson PARALIFT 1 PIECES
