The LEED Online format for submitting the MR credit 4, 5, and 7 it asks for the "Cost per Item" and "Number of Items Purchased". I have to total cost of the items, but not the individual cost. Could I submit the total cost for each item and input (1) as the quantity along with proper documentation (product data sheets, manufacturing letters, ext.)?

Generally the cost information comes with the shop drawings so you have a total cost for a product associated with the shop drawing. In this case, you enter in the Cost per item as the total cost for that submittal and the number of items in the submittal as 1. For example, you get a submittal for doors and included in the submittal are the doors, door frames and hardware with costs for all three items listed separately. You enter 'Doors' in first column on left, 'Cost' as shown on your shop drawing in next column, '1' in third column and hopefully can hit the 20% cut button on the far right. Then you start a second line for the frames and a third for the door hardware. If you get a second submittal for additional doors, then this would be 'Doors 2' in the first column with everything else being filled out the same. I would tie everything to a submittal as this is your best way to prove your case when you get questioned on it. Write your specifications to tie your LEED submittal to the shop drawing submittal.
