Included: flooring material, waste allowance.

Enter floor area, choose a material and installation pattern, and CrewMeasure applies the matching waste factor before rounding up to full boxes.
Diagonal and herringbone patterns produce more cut waste than a straight layout, so each material and pattern combination has its own default waste factor -- shown as a starting point you can override for your specific job.
For hardwood, engineered, LVP, and laminate, yes -- purchase quantity always rounds up to whole boxes since those are sold by the box or carton. Carpet is different: it comes off a fixed-width roll, usually 12 ft, so what you buy is a length of that roll and anything wider than the roll needs a second run and a seam. Enter the room width and length and the result follows the roll; enter only an area and it cannot, so it says so.
Yes. Room Layout floor area can be used directly instead of entering square footage by hand.
Material estimate only. Actual waste can vary with room shape, transitions, and material lot.
