Summary: Greater flexibility in the format of the parts list much like Excel.
Description: It would be extremely advantageous to a lot more functionality in controlling the format & layout of a parts list. I make my comparison to Excel. You can modify the borders of a cell and completely change the look. For instance, you may want a column header that spans two column but has a subheading that pertains to only one column. For example, "Nozzle Projection" would span two columns and be above sub headings "Internal" and "External". It would be nice to group parts under one item #. A nozzle might include a pipe, flange, elbow, and blind. I would be nice to group these items as one item but list them on separate lines.
