Links tab 

You use this tab to link prices between two or more items in the standard database. Then, when you change the price of one item, Estimating automatically updates the price of all other items linked to that item.

Note: Linking is available only for Labor, Material, and Equipment categories.

Example

The Links tab also shows the item price from the Pricing tab. The price cannot be changed here.

Tips:  

  • Select the checkbox beside each category that applies to an item.

  • Linked items in the standard database always have the same price.

  • Linking is available only for Labor, Material, and Equipment categories.
