When finishing off a take off Iwas wondering is there a way to round off the last pipe lenght to a full length
Problem is that when you are taking off large bore pipe and the the pipe does add up to a full lenght it could get costly if forgotten
Could you please look into this ?

This topic was discussed a few years ago, between the folks at QPI and us users of AutoBid. I agree with you, that rounding up would be a great feature, but when AutoBid was in the design stages of life, it was agreed byt the makers of the software that since we are generating estmitates it would be best to leave the pipe at the exact take off quantity.
AutoBid does not take out for the fittings, so if you are using the digitizer and GTO, then you are taking off extra pipe where there are fittings anyway.
If you need to submit your take off for a buy out, then you need to manually m***age the langth of pipe before sending the list to your vendor.
