Degree of Difficulty

These are a few examples of the reports available to your company. There are many variations on these and other reports too numerous to display each of them here. 

You have seen that the ActiveApplications estimating application is a fast and accurate method of producing proposals for customer. Is it flexible? Can a simple method be used to adjust the standards by predetermined factors to account automatically for different job conditions? The answer is yes. It is called Difficulty Level. Difficulty Level is a predetermined factor that adjusts Equipment and Labor component item quantities up or down. If a job is more difficult than standard then the factor is greater than 1. If it is easier than normal then the factor is less than 1. 

Different parts of a proposal could have different degrees of difficulty. This will affect the labor and equipment quantities only. This gives your sales personnel great flexibility when creating proposals particular to job locations. These job conditions could include distance from the office, local township building inspectors, soil conditions or even job site conditions. ActiveApplications gives you that flexibility and the power. 

UDS follows several guidelines when designing reports. The amount of information that must be displayed determines the size of the report. If the necessary information can be displayed in portrait on your paper size it will. A smaller font size will be used until the type would be unreadable if made smaller. If the necessary information is too wide to fit portrait the computer will switch to landscape mode. If the required information is still too wide legal paper (8 by 14 inches) will automatically be selected in the printer. Your printer and print driver will determine how the commands are handled by your system. UDS makes it easy for you to get the information you must have.

The report samples displayed in these examples are captured directly from the report program that generates the report. Built into every UDS report is the ability to view it on the screen or place the report directly into Word or Excel format if those applications are available on your computer. Export it into one of several other file formats is available, too. 

Easy integration into Microsoft Office is a priority with UDS programming staff. You will be more productive when using Active Applications because of the Office integration features.
