Add Companion Material
Example: You have an item (appliance, gas fireplace) that needs to have installation costs associated with it.
Toilet needs a wax ring, Johnnie bolts and a supply line
Gas fireplace needs metal flue to vent and to have the unit installed
In Softlist the cost is for the items themselves, not what is needed to install them
You could include these costs as part of the symbols, but for clarity, associate these costs with the respective symbol
For this example we are going to add the costs for the metal flue pipe for a gas fireplace
1) Edit the gas fireplace
2) Click on List Materials button
3) Nothing shows because there are no formulas for this symbol
4) Click Add Companion Material button
5) In name field type Metal Flue Pipe
6) Qty. =1
7) Cost = 50.00
8) Click OK
9) When complete it will show the cost for the material we just added
10) Generate a Material Report and notice the changes to the gas firplace
The Library Pricing Table contains the costs and listing information for symbols, openings, speed notes, cabinets, shutters, electrical and posts, not the Material Definitions Table
