Deleting Cost Categories

To delete a whole category from a MacNail construction estimate or estimator, follow these steps:

1. Go to the Summation, Clearinghouse or Specifications section of the estimate or estimator, and click the mouse anywhere within the category you'd like to delete.
Making and Changing Estimators Page 41
2. Choose Delete Category from the Format menu.
3. If the active estimate or estimator does not have subcategories, you'll be asked whether to proceed with the deletion-- click OK, and proceed to step 4. If the active estimate or estimator does include subcategories, click 'Delete entire category' at the first dialog, then click OK.
4. The selected category will be completely removed from the Summation, Clearinghouse and Specifications sections of the estimate or estimator, and the category beneath it will be moved upwards to take its place.

NOTE: The MacNail construction management software only lets you delete one cost category at a time. If you select more than one category with the mouse, only the top category will be deleted.
