Sorting your PL or BoQ items

Here's a new technical support issue that I wanted to share with our users

QUESTION
Why is it that I get a different item ordering in comparison to how they are ordered in the Price List, the Bid proposal and the estimate documents?

ANSWER
Item ordering (normal) is according to their insertion order. You can of course order items with custom settings according to:
- the item's rate or tariff code;
- the article code;
- their categories (and the various possible combinations)
- their chapters (and the various possible combinations)

For the Price List, the default item sorting method is by rate code.

In the BoQ project document, item sorting is according to the individual rate or tariff code but in relation the belogning Work Sections (Measured works, Lump sum, etc.)
