About cutting, copying, and pasting spreadsheet items

You can easily cut or copy and paste one or more items within the same estimate or into a different estimate.

You can also cut and paste multiple assemblies and items at the same time, providing you do not select a complete assembly.

No matter where you paste the selection, Sage Estimating (SQL) organizes items appropriately based on the current sequence.

Tips:  

  • The phase and job cost phase codes in both estimates must have the same format (length and suffix).
  • Selecting a collapsed level includes every item within that level.
  • If the estimates use different standard databases, there may be missing or conflicting information. Example
  • You can also drag items from one estimate to another.
  • Subcontractor bids (Bid Grid of the Sub Amount column) are not included in these operations.
