# How to set up a QTO structure

Customize your QTO structure in Kreo BIM Takeoff

QTO structure is customizable in Kreo. You can:

\- Create a custom breakdown;

\- Add/remove properties/measurements from the Breakdown Table.

1\. Kreo sets up a traditional Revit breakdown structure by default (Category - Family - ElementType - Extra Properties). To reorganise the project breakdown yo need to:Open the Breakdown Manager → Find the necessary BIM properties → Drag&drop them to the "Row Groups" → Range properties in the "Row Groups" in an appropriate order.

2\. Switch on/off the relevant properties/measurements in the Breakdown Manager to see/hide them in the Breakdown Table.
