Cost Summary in Estimates

Problem

For years, users have reported various number problems in the Cost Summary window, but we never able to duplicate them. Finally, we isolated the problem: the report was based on the saved record, so recent changes were not included in the report.

Caught By

User bug reports.

Workaround

In versions of Goldenseal estimating software prior to 4.9, be sure to save the record before you use the Cost Summary report. Hit the Enter key on your keyboard, or choose Save Record from the Edit menu.

Solution

When you click the Cost Summary button, Goldenseal now saves the record first, then calculates from the latest values.
