From a drawing to a quote
Quote straight off the architect's drawing
The problem
A client sends an architectural drawing and wants a quote. You print it, mark it with a highlighter, count twice, retype it, and the team never sees which wall you meant.
What Zeus does
Upload the drawing to the job and place Price Book items straight onto it. The items you placed become the quote's lines.
