Entering new cost and billing amounts for lumber classes

Note: This functionality is available only if you have the Estimating Module.

Consider the following points:

Sage 100 Contractor updates the new costs in the Last Cost box, and the new billing prices in the Billing Amount box in the part records.
When you leave the Cost or Billing cells blank, Sage 100 Contractor does not change the current prices. This allows you to make changes only to costs or billing amounts for different lumber classes.
Use the 9-7 Maintain Parts Database window to make changes to lumber parts based on selection criteria other than part classes.

To enter new cost and billing amounts for lumber classes:

Open 9-8 Board Footage.

In the Part Class column, right-click a cell, then click Display Picklist Window.

Alternatively, you can click the drop-down arrow to display the Lookup window.

Create a Picklist of part classes, and insert the list in the Board Footage window.

In the Cost/1000Bf column, enter the new cost per 1000 board feet.

In the Billing/1000Bf column, enter the new billing amount per 1000 board feet.

Click the Update button.

On the File menu, click Save.

Sage 100 Contractor saves the part classes for use in the next update session.
