Weldment cutlist shows more items than in the actual cutlist

after i organize my cut list, in the cutlist properties it keeps using the old labels of things.

i have done the same thing i am doing while in a test file and it updates perfectly.

This is what i am trying to do. when i created the weldnment there were a bunch of parts that were put into the same cutlist item. i needed those items to have different part numbers and descriptions. so i dragged the item with the blue box out of the cut list folder and then created it as a cutlist item. but when i go into the cutlist prperties there is folders that have nothing in them.

basically i don't know what i'm doing with a cut list, and i need some help
