After you activate DPC mode ("flip" a bid to DCP-Mode on the Image Tab), the interface changes to display all of the Digital Production Control functions. This Quick Start Guide will explain all of the new buttons, menus and screens you will see and prepare you for using the program more efficiently.

Quick Start Guides

At the top of the first article in each section/chapter is a link (or two) to Quick Start Guides for that section/chapter. These are PDFs that you can print and use as a checklist of sorts.

Getting Started with DPC Quick Start Guide

Database Prep

The first thing you will notice is that there are four new Tabs and the Takeoff and Worksheet Tabs are hidden.

Digital Production Control adds several Program Tabs to the On-Screen Takeoff interface

Tab What it shows/what you use it for...
