• Quantity displays the Material Cost Code quantity total taken from the base.  The Quantity column is available only when Calculation Method is set to Material Quantity.

• Percent is available when the Calculation Method is set to Material Cost or Labor Hours.

• When both the Calculation Method and Show results as is set to Material Cost, the percent of cost for stocking cost is displayed.  In Section Mode, the value displayed is the percent of cost stored in that specific section.  In Bid Mode, the value is calculated by dividing the Total Cost for all sections by the Cost for all sections and multiplying by 100 (Total Cost for all sections ÷ Cost for all sections) x 100).

• When the Calculation Method is set to Labor Hours, the percent of hours the stocking cost to be used to calculate the stocking cost is displayed.  If you update Percent in Bid Mode, it will be calculated by dividing the Totals Hours for all sections by the Hours for all sections and multiplying by 100 (Total Hours for all sections ÷ Hours for all sections) x 100).

• Cost applies charges for stocking the Material Cost Code.

• Total Cost displays the Total Stock Cost for the Material Cost Code.
