About Remodeler estimating data
Note: This functionality is available only if you have the Estimating Module.
When you create a new company and build a chart of accounts in the 1-8 General Ledger Setup window, you can automatically install the Remodelers set of data. Estimating data can be used as a starting point for your takeoffs, saving you time when creating estimates. This includes a specialized chart of accounts, cost codes, tasks and the following estimating data:
- Parts
- Assemblies
- Part/Assembly Classes
- Takeoff Grid files
All HomeBuilder and Remodeler setup files are available for download from Sage Knowledgebase article 112631.
Note: When you install the estimating data, you will be prompted with a message to select the lumber species to be used to create the installed assemblies and grids. You should choose the species that you most commonly work with.
