Deciding how to code phases

Phase codes let you organize phases numerically and alphabetically into two levels known as group phases (divisions) and phases (subdivisions). Within the coding scheme, there are three main concerns.

Tips:  

  • It is important for the job cost phase codes in the Sage Estimating software to have the same format (length, suffix, punctuation, and justification) as the codes in your job cost application. How?
  • If you are using the Sage Estimating software with Sage 300 Construction Job Cost, you can import data such as cost codes and categories into your standard database. When you set up your standard database, select Sage 300 Construction as the Job cost interface type and select the Use Sage 300 Construction’s Job Cost data option.
