If so, how? > Without customization the closest you could do is remove the constraint on unique partnumbers (or suffix them without removing the constraint) and just select from the search screen that comes up. So if you have two hard drives, you could have: hdd-500-sata-7200-1 hdd-500-sata-7200-2 etc then if you type hdd-500-sata-7200 you will get a list of these and can select which one it is. This allows you to do hierarchical searches too (hdd would list all hard drives, hdd-500 might list all 500GB hard drives, etc). With customization you could limit the search to those in stock. This has some significant issues in some cases so is not generally applicable.
