Did you know? The “What If” function.
Have you ever been asked: What if I use a different brick? What if I add a garage to the project? What if I change the profit margins? Billcost can answer these questions without you losing your original work.
This is how:
In the Project Manager, right click on your project and select “What If”.
At the bottom of the screen, click on the ”What if” tab as shown below.
Billcost made a copy of the project and now you can use all the normal functions of Billcost while still keeping your original project and information.
When you have made changes to the project and would like to keep it with you other projects, do the following:
Right click on the project under the What if tab, and click “rename”. Rename the project.
Then right click on the project and click on “move project to”.
At the bottom of the window that appears, erase the word “What if” and click ok.
Then click on the “Normal” tab again. The project will now appear with all your other projects.
This a good function if you would like to make change or play around with figures to simulate different scenarios without having to do the costing all over again.
