FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can I sort from the All Items Page to locate project specific items anyway?
Yes! Please take advantage of all of our sorting and filtering options located at the top of the item table. To sort by project, you would just need to include the project column, and then filter by the project you intend to look at.
What is the Archive and Reusable Item View?
Archived items, are items that you manually "archive", and are typically done when an item is no longer necessary. Designers usually archive them to clean up their item views. Reusable Item Views include the items you have saved as "Template Items". Similar to cloning an item, this feature is used if you have a pillow spec you typically buy, or some version of labor you use a lot, and don't want to waste time entering on each item.
Can I create Proposals from the All Items Page?
You can complete every action you would do from the project page's custom view. Just make sure items you include on proposals/purchase orders are from the same Project.
