Estimate Scope of Work

Feature

Starting with Goldenseal estimating software version 3.2, you can just type a project description into Goldenseal and then print it, when working on an Estimate for a simple project.

We now use the Scope of Work field in the estimate for this description-- it is what shows up on the Simple Estimate printed form that you'll give to customers.

HINT-- The Scope of Work field holds up to 32,000 characters, so you can write as detailed a description as you'd like for the project.

How to Use
