Use the import commands to import useful files to the Estimating module. The compatible file types contain IFC files, CIS2 files, KISS files, Bluebeam files, and Microsoft Excel worksheets.

You can also export an estimating job to the KISS format to save a copy of it before making any changes due to pricing changes or revisions, or export labor database information to view the currently set labor times.
