Hi Carlos,

Don't use "Simple BOM".  Use either OUTJOB, or "Reports>Bill of 
Materials".  From the BOM dialog, drag the common feature (such as 
description, library reference, or footprint) from the bottom left 
column of the dialog to the top left column (heading is "Grouped 
Columns").  Now your BOM will show the designators and totals grouped 
according to the feature they have in common.

Regards - Harry
