In regards to building assemblies:

If you have a number of items that you want to make an assembly out of each item must have a quantity of (1). Otherwise it doesn´t multiply out right. In other words if you make an assembly with an item of quantity (2), and then put the assembly into a job with a quantity of (2) you will get that item but with quantity (3), not (4). Is this by design or should the program multiply the quantity of items in the  assembly be the quantity of the actual assembly?

I think that i addition to the quantity being 1, each like piece needs  a unique tag number. Or I am 180 degrees off base and like pieces get a comon number I don't remember which and I don't have my key with me right now to be able to experiment.

This should be fixed in the current release build 3.35.040. When you create a sub assembly which has multiple quantity items they now get expanded it into individual quantity items (all with a quantity of 1).
