Manage Units from Units Database
In Ediphi, Admins can easily manage their company's Units Database, allowing them to update Units and their Unit Spec values directly. The Units Database enables users to quickly add preset Units to new estimates or projects, eliminating the need to create them individually each time. Units are organized by Use Groups, streamlining the setup process for the Unit Mix in an Estimate. To ensure your Units and Unit Specs are properly configured, refer to the following article: Unit Specs.
