 +===== Purpose =====
  
 +It is not uncommon for a given product or order to contain multiple instances of the same part used. For example, an electric box sign may use sheet aluminum for the top, sides, bottom and back. All of these may be represented as separate parts on the same product. Similarly, the labor applied for fabricating the aluminum may be included as separate parts. This separation is useful for the computation of costs, but can be cumbersome for production when they have to select between the different parts to apply labor and material usage.
  
-=Purpose=+To improve the interface for the production user, the Control parts grid includes summary views which aggregate similar parts into one logical part. Part usage may be applied to the aggregate part and the usage automatically distributed between the composite parts.
  
 +===== Parts Grid in Order Entry =====
