Takeoff Tool holds a job when a wrong answer would be worse than no answer. Common reasons:
- The packet has no spec for your section, and the drawings-only scope is not approved yet.
- A measured run is not clean enough to count.
- A company rule rejects the job. For example, a labor agreement your company does not bid under.
How to clear a hold
Open the job. The blocking line is at the top of the review queue. Answer it, or add the missing file to the packet and run the takeoff again.
