CAD Driven BOM For Parts With Different Colors

Is there a method to configure a CAD driven BOM structure so a component (Qty 3 in CAD assembly) is listed three times as qty 1 for each occurrence so a COLOR usage attribute can be assigned to each?

In the repeat region, enable Duplicates. This applies to the whole table, so if you have 4 bolts, they will also have 4 lines in the BOM.

The better solution is to utilize a family table with each color being an instance with a unique part number and then put each instance in your assembly. This will give each color part a single line but combine the 4 bolts into a single line.

Thanks for reply, Ben; but my question applies to the structure in PSB, not a repeat region in a drawing.
