This screen is used to transfer Spectrum Job Cost information back to the estimating program, creating a historical data file.

The comma-delimited ASCII text file is produced from information stored in the Spectrum Phase File Maintenance screen. The system transfers costs for labor, materials, subcontracts, equipment and other costs. The quantity and labor cost types can be entered on the starting screen; the other cost types are available for viewing in a lookup window. Also, the method for posting quantities for the quantity cost type allows you to post to the quantity cost type if present and non-zero; otherwise, it uses the first non-zero quantity. If no non-zero quantity exists in the file, then the quantity is set to 1.

Only completed jobs are included in the transfer.
