Custom AFX hardware configurations

I am using Creo Parametric Release 8.0 and Datecode8.0.0.0

I am making Custom hardware for the AFX library based on the vendors we use (Automation Direct vs 8020.net) - When I add my new hardware (New Connector Equipment) the first one adds correctly with the right Part number in the model tree (151099.prt), but anything after the first defaults to the base part name (t-nut_ad.prt) which is controlled by the tab file similar to the bolt_kit parts in the 8020 library

Edited to add - This is the command string when trying to add the subsequent parts which is supposed to be additional 151099:

151099 regeneration completed successfully.
Part '151099' not changed since last regen.
T-NUT_AD has been saved.
Select axis as component reference: PLACEMENT_AXIS
Select face as component reference: PROFILE_SURFACE
T-NUT_AD regeneration completed successfully.
Part 'T-NUT_AD' not changed since last regen.
Create element at all other points/axis of feature (y/n): y
