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#

  1. Open the task and select its Materials tab.
  2. Select Add material.
  3. Enter the Material, for example "Floor tiles".
  4. 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".
  5. Add an Estimated cost per unit, a Supplier and a Note if you like.
  6. Select Add material.

Paste a list#

  1. On the Materials tab, select Paste a list.
  2. 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.
  3. Check What will be added.
  4. 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.
