Guides

Start hereWinning a job (Lock → quote → award → bill → Actuals)
Step-by-step Job Run guide — lock the baseline, send bid packages, level quotes and cherry-pick the low lines, award POs, bill to Actuals.
Takeoff: calibrate, measure, Auto Name
Job Run guide — scale lock, measure, Find similar (you confirm count, length, or area), then Auto Name sheets from the title block with review before apply.
Estimate → proposal
Price the worksheet, bulk waste/unit cost, push to the job budget, send a proposal with merge tokens.
Schedule look-ahead
Build from budget lines, link dependencies for the critical path, filter the 21-day look-ahead, track % against a baseline.
Field logs & inspections
Daily logs, photos on today’s log, clock-out cost-code splits, inspections that stay one form.
Collect: invoices, credits & pay applications
Send, record payment, issue credit memos, and progress-bill with SOV-seeded pay applications — continuation sheet, stored materials, certify.
Change orders
Change events roll into a change order — approve once and the money lands on the budget once.
Selections & allowances
Choice boards with decide-by dates, homeowner picks on the portal, allowance sync to budget, overage to signed change.
Owner portal: inviting a client
Choose what they see, preview as the owner, invite by email — approvals, progress, and payments in one calm view.
Proposals & contracts
Draft from the job scope, collect typed e-sign on the portal, create the contract, continue into billing.
Vendors & cost catalog
One directory feeds every job roster and RFQ invite; one catalog with CSI items and assemblies prices every estimate.
Drawings, specs & photos
Revision-aware drawing register, CSI spec sections with Package PDF, and jobsite photos on the same record.
Project controls: RFIs, submittals, logs, punch
Ball-in-court, overdue pulses, drawing pins that open RFIs or punch, and signed reply links for outside parties.
Meetings: agenda, minutes, transmittals
Build Thursday’s OAC from court, file minutes, put actions on My Day, and issue a numbered transmittal when the set goes out.
Integrations: payments, e-sign, QuickBooks
Collect on your Stripe, typed e-sign included, optional QuickBooks push and Refresh — nothing asks you to paste secrets.
Team & permissions
Seven roles with per-permission overrides, per-project access, email invites, and honest seat counts.
Dashboard & My Day
Morning court, crew clocks, and the next Job Run step — then inspect money and open the job.
Reports: AR, WIP, margin
Unpaid invoices, under/over billed, and left after costs — print the page or export the pack.
Closeout
Punch, warranties, retainage, and the binder on Job Home — not a second closeout product.
Warranties
Log a claim on the job, chase the owner on the portal, close when the work is done.
Cost catalog first run
The book starts empty — import a CSV or add the first item. No sample rates ship with the product.
Bid inbox
Open packages and awaiting quotes across jobs. Issue on Bids; this desk is read-only.
