Providing a clear and concise reference point for contractors, vendors and clients to ensure the design is executed accurately throughout the installation process.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  1. Can I make spec sheets for multiple projects?

    1. Spec sheets can only include items from the same projects. You should filter by project and "Select All" to save time downloading each project's sheets.

  2. Why is the text pushing onto a second page?

    1. You likely have too many columns selected, or have an item with a large amount of text from a specific field. Remove those columns and it will go back to one page.

  3. Is there any way to reorder the spec sheet?

    1. Currently there is no way to reorder the spec sheet when downloading. Its current logic is based on the created dates of the items.
