Adding a pass during assembly takeoff allows you to take off additional quantities and combine them with existing takeoff quantities. Each time you make a pass, the pass appears in the List area in takeoff order. The number of the current pass displays at the bottom of the Variable pane.
Tip: The Sage Estimating software automatically generates a pass to an assembly when you change the quantity of an item in the takeoff grid on the Assembly Takeoff window. A pass note identifies the item and its original amount.
