  1. Good day,

     

    When I submitted my request for a quote with companies like 84 Lumber and Builders First Source, I gave them a house plan (in pdf) and a copy of the BOM (in Excel format) generated by CA.   They replied back - "We'll let you know soon.".  I thought while I was waiting, I'd try Home Depot and then Lowes. I got a phone call back from the local HD store saying they could not supply a quote because the BOM was in total linear feet and not in number of pieces. 

     

    So, is there a conversion within CA to do so? 

     

    Thank you,

  2. Good day,

     

    Issue: 
    The Soffit/Eave (underbody to the Roof Plane) on the right side shows the material as asphalt roofing and not the material selected (Cedar Tongue & Groove) like the left side does.  See picture uploaded.

     

    Details:
    The left side of the screen capture is correct.  However, when I look at the right side of the underbody to the deck roof it shows as asphalt roofing material, which is used on top of the roof surface. I have deleting the 'roof plane' and re-added it but it continues to show the material as asphalt roofing even though my selection shows the correct value.  

     

    Thank you,
