What it is
A row of category filters above the material table. The known sections come first in a fixed order, and any additional category present in the take-off is appended so nothing is hidden by a hard-coded list.
Also called: framing only · material categories · filter the BOM

How it works
- 1The fixed order is Framing, Sheathing, Trim, Doors & Windows, Foundation, Fasteners
- 2Only categories actually present in the rows are shown
- 3Any category outside the fixed list is appended as an extra chip
- 4Selecting a chip filters the table; 'All' returns everything
Why we built it
These are the sections a builder already thinks in, and they are the same groupings the supplier order and the receiving pass use — one vocabulary across the take-off, the order and the tailgate.
The problem
- A long BOM is hard to scan for one trade's materials
