Material price determination

In order to achieve precise material costs, and to have the ability to simulate cost effects of quantity scales, the material price of a calculation can be determined via quantity-dependent scale prices. The determined material price per unit is shown in the Details ► General and can be overridden with F12.

The quantity-dependent scale prices can be administered via the »Price per Unit« value rule table of the material in the »Quantity Scale From« and »Quantity Scale To« columns.

The material price per unit and the refund per unit depend on the following dimensions:
