Using minimum part quantities in phases

Note: This functionality is only available if you have purchased the Estimating Add-On Module.

With the Minimum Quantities by Phase command selected, Sage 100 Contractor determines the total extended quantity for each part by phase when you calculate it.

If the quantity from the phase is less than the minimum order quantity, Sage 100 Contractor determines the difference and adds the amount to the extended part quantity where the part first appears in the phase.

If the quantity from the phase is greater than the minimum order quantity, Sage 100 Contractor determines the quantity necessary to order the next complete package. Sage 100 Contractor then adds the amount to the extended part quantity where the part first appears in the phase.

To use minimum part quantities in a phase:

On the Update menu, point to Takeoff, and then click Minimum Quantities by Phase.
