What is an assembly?

I have some items in a folder inside a takeoff and I wanted the qty in reports to be the takeoff qty not the qty insider the folder so I thought this is probably a job for an assembly but when I created one and tried to add child items I found I couldn't.

Can you explain the use case for assembly's and any way I can achieve the desired outcome?

HI Kev,

Not sure if I understand what eactly you are looking for -- Can you go into Reports>Advansed Item Reports>Grouped by Item.

Let me know if this is what you would like to achive, cheers.

Hi Steve

What I am looking for is the folder qty to show the takeoff count rather than the sum of qty withing the folder, so for example I did a takeoff and counted 1 door so on this screensot the folder should say 1 not 14
