Error Message in Estimate Dimensions

Problem

In Goldenseal estimating software version 3.0, entering dimensions in a new, unsaved Estimate gives error messages.

Caught By

Turtlesoft staff (at Chicago training class)

Workaround

Save the Estimate (hit the Enter key, or choose Save Record from the Edit menu).

Solution

Version 3.01 of Goldenseal construction estimating software stores project dimension data in a temporary location, if the Estimate record is not yet saved.

Technical Details

Unlike other fields, dimensions save immediately to the estimate. The new modal dimension system introduced in 3.0 was not saving estimates immediately, so it complains.
