Consolidating information

Cerberus - 27 Mar 2008 18:05 GMT
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

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.

Is there a way to have it refresh if the customer changes the option?

I don't know of any way to make it automatically refresh, other than with a
macro.
