Understand hardware quantities rounded up to whole sets

Learn why per-set hardware quantities in the Raw Material list are rounded up and how to check a quantity that looks too high.

1. When a hardware SKU is priced 'per set' (e.g. one set covers 1000 mm of profile, or a fixed area), the Hardware Raw Material list and quotation show the quantity as a number of sets, not the raw consumption. The system first totals the consumed length/area across everything in scope, converts it to the SKU's procurement unit, divides by the set size, and rounds UP to the next whole set. So consuming 2500 mm of a 1000 mm-per-set SKU shows 3 sets; even 1 mm over a boundary adds a full set. This is intentional: the raw-material list answers 'how many sets must be procured', so it can look inflated compared to what the design physically uses. Per-unit (count-based) SKUs are unaffected and show plain counts. If a client says the quantity looks too high: check the SKU's procurement set size in the catalog, multiply sets by set size, and compare that to the consumed length/area — the difference is just the round-up remainder of the last set.

2. The Hardware BOQ download menu offers three variants: Hardware BOQ with pricing (CSV), Hardware BOQ without pricing (CSV), and Hardware BOQ without pricing as a PDF.
