BOARD FEET

[builtright3]

Hey Guy’s,

 

Is there a way to apply board foot cost to a specific species of lumber so that it will automatically total the cost without having to put cost into the materials list individually by size of lumber?

 

Appreciate any guidance if this is even possible

As far as I know, you can't narrow it down to a species and display that as a single report, but you can total the cost of everything combined. Set up your structural materials pricing in your template, and everything will calculate automatically.

 

Go to Tools > Materials List > Structural Member Reporting... and then open your preferred reporting type, and enter the pricing for individual members. Then the Materials List will pull pricing from there and run out the totals for each member automatically.

Plug "structural member reporting" into Help.
