Import Merge Data


This option allows estimate information in multiple estimates to be merged into one estimate in ProEstimate Heavy. The file exported uses the project name to name the ZIP folder. The merge data for a project labled Sample Earthwork would be labeled PE_Sample_Earthwork.ZIP for example.

Select the File Path to IMPORT the project data to by pressing the button. Note: You will not find the file, just the file location and once the IMPORT button is selected the system will list the projects to choose.

The User Code field is used to assign a specific user code to all exported tasks. This field cannot be changed and will display the initials of the estimator that exported the file.

The options to include in the import routine are as follows:

Pay Item Data Number, Description, Bid Quantity and Unit
Haul/Blast Sheets Includes any Task Worksheets.
Plugged Priced Items Includes any costs "plugged" in the estimate.
Custom Quote Sheets Created for the estimate will be added to the "main" estimate.
Sub/Supplier Sheets Includes any pricing sheets to be added to "main" estimate.
Pay Items The default selection is All Pay Items.  However, pressing the Select Pay Items button opens a window to choose which items to import.
