Switching between Takeoff Mode and DPC Mode - The Takeoff Mode button is visible on the Image Tab, in the Labor Cost Codes Window. This button returns a bid to Takeoff mode so the Foreman can see the actual takeoff of a project and the associated conditions.
- You do not need a 'tko' license to switch to "Takeoff Mode", any DPC license holder can do that. This allows the DPC foreman to look at the takeoff, Conditions, and Bid Areas.
- You do need a 'tko' and 'dpm' license if you want to unlock the Bid, while in Takeoff Mode, to edit it or add Change Orders. (You also need Quick Bid installed and a QB license.)
