SCHEDULE SUMMARY

An overview of the whole job

The Schedule summary shows each of the Bills that make up the Schedule along with the values that make up the total cost for that Bill. The totals for all Bills are shown at the foot of the screen. Get to know the power of the features in the Schedule Summary, they can save you a lot of work.
