Understanding How Many Configurations of Product are Sold

Each configuration is set-up as a different Part number that makes up one complete device. We want to find out how many of each full configuration we have sold to tell the highest selling combinations. The configuration numbers relate to an option of the product for instance 12345-W means wireless.

We need to find out how many of each string of configurations we have to count them. This has a few columns that will help to find the configuration. You can look at the line number and the sales number to ensure that they are in the same grouping on the sales order. For instance one whole config that makes up a finished product will have line number 1 for all parts associated with the finished product, going down the sales order numerically. We can use this in combination with the sales order to come up with the Configuration String. Then we can look at the config column and part column to differentiate the base config from the options. The "C" in the Config column tells us it's the base model, the "X" tells us it's an option.

With this information we need to create the configuration string shown as a manual example in blueish/purple column, photo linked below. Once we have the string it's just counting the "C" config option only to avoid double counting then we can make a Pivot Table to tell how many duplicates of the same option there are and filter for C only. These are multiple different products, and multiple different configurations of different products.

Here is the Set-up: Data example- the Blue column is an example manually of what is needed

Some thoughts I had were an If, then statement, Concatenation IF, or a Macro. But nothing has worked out so far. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
