If there is already a way to do this, please elaborate.  

But if not, would it be possible, when adding fixtures to the design to also automaticlly generate reports that would include requred accessories to make the job happen?  i.e.: when adding a fixture that will be mounted to a truss, include truss clamps, safetys, and even the required power cables and put them in list form on a report or what I would call a cable/accessory pull list - addittionally if they could be a prompt option to add that would be awesome too because you dont always need clamps and safetys (floor pkg.).  Obviously I would have to add any extension and data cables that wouldn't otherwise be included.  

Also, when adding truss that is connected, maybe include a bolt-set (bolts, washers, nuts - one set per length again as an option) to the list.

Thanks!

Maybe a combination of enhanced report items and a way to "attach" them to a fixture would be a way to tackle this? As a similar request, I often find myself manually counting the number of seats drawn into my plot. Adding the number of seats to an object could work similar to adding the number of required clamps, cabling, etc. ?
