Build a task's materials list
List what a task needs, with quantities, units, suppliers and estimated costs, one item at a time or by pasting a list.
Les articles d’aide sont pour l’instant en anglais. Le reste de RenovU est dans votre langue.
Each task has a Materials tab for the things it needs. Everyone on the project can see the list. Costs are shown only to members who see money.
Add a material#
- Open the task and select its Materials tab.
- Select Add material.
- Enter the Material, for example "Floor tiles".
- Enter the Quantity needed and pick a Unit. Choose None (a count) for things like "12 floor tiles", or Other… to type a word of your own, such as "lengths".
- Add an Estimated cost per unit, a Supplier and a Note if you like.
- Select Add material.
Paste a list#
- On the Materials tab, select Paste a list.
- Paste or type one item per line, for example "12 m² floor tiles", "3 bags of tile adhesive" or "Grout". A line without a quantity counts as one.
- Check What will be added.
- Select the add button, for example Add 3 materials.
You can paste up to 100 lines at a time.
Units#
Measures (metres, square metres, cubic metres, litres and kilograms) are shown in your own units: set metric or imperial in Settings. Counts such as bags, boxes, rolls and tins are shown as they are. A unit of your own is shown exactly as you typed it.
Reorder, change or delete#
Drag an item by its handle to move it. Use the edit and delete buttons beside an item to change or remove it. A deleted item can be brought back with Undo.
The total at the foot#
The foot of the list shows the Estimated total, from the items that have a cost. Items without a cost aren't counted, and the list says how many there are.
Calculators can fill this list for you. See Tools and floorplan.
