Marking manually adjusted productivity and price factors

To mark factors as custom factors that should not be overwritten when you reprice the estimate, right-click the cell, and then select Mark Manual Factor from the shortcut menu.

Tip: If you change an amount that affects labor or equipment productivity, or if you change a productivity factor directly, Estimating inserts a comment for the cell. Cells that have comments are marked by a red triangle in the upper right corner.

Tip: To view a comment, simply hover over the marked cell. Comments include the original value and, if appropriate, the percent change.
