Work with Cost Items in the Lookup

Use the Lookup feature to add cost items to a visual assembly. The Lookup stores a list of cost items you can select from for each part of a visual assembly that requires a cost item. This list can be as long as you want and is built from the catalog that is currently selected from the job. You can have a different Lookup list for all the parts of a visual assembly just by changing the active catalog.

Parts of a visual assembly that use Lookup lists are denoted by the Lookup button next to the field. When you click this button, the cost items that are part of the Lookup list appear and you can select one to apply to the part of the visual assembly.
