DIMS (Quantity Calculation) 
Fast Estimate allows you to enter dimensions directly from a drawing
in order to calculate the net quantity to be applied to a bill item. This
is entered on a calculation worksheet or 'dims sheet'.
Once the schedule dims sheet has been set up you can apply specific calculated
values to as many items as you wish, applying the quantity to each item.
Key Features:
- Add a dims sheet to as many items as you need to
- Composite Dims option (nested dims)
- Rounding option
This has similar functions to the traditional 'dims' sheet but
is easier to use, especially for those not familiar with traditional
layout and conventions ('anding on'; sidecasts, etc.).
The calculation worksheet uses a simple spreadsheet style,
with the net total brought forward to the item Qty cell on
the bill page.
