    Default System of Nested Families

    Im a developing a paired flange family.. It consists of several nested families, ie. bolts/studs, nuts, gasket and the other flange. The reason for doing this is each piece needs to be listed as a seperate line item on the BOM. The number and size of all of these objects is determined based on the nominal diameter of the pipe its connected to.

    The system name is also something that we need to see in the BOM for each object as its used for another parameter that we order from . When I place this flange on the pipe only the "outter/host" family recieves any information about the piping system its conected to. I need all the pieces and parts to show as they are on that system.

    How do I get the system to appear for these objects?

    Thanks
