Assemblies within Assemblies

Problem

If an Assembly is included as a component in another Assembly with a quantity other than 1, the basic price calculates correctly in the main Assembly, but the calculation of the labor or material component misses the quantity multiplier. This produces incorrect results in Estimates if the item uses a multiplier. This problem occurs in Goldenseal construction estimating software versions 3.1 and earlier.

Caught By

User bug report.

Workaround

None.

We don't provide any assemblies that contain subassemblies, so this problem occurs only when users create their own complex assemblies.

Solution

Fixed in version 3.2 of Goldenseal construction estimating software. Estimates will automatically get the correct pricing after the user clicks the Update Prices button.
