What is a Test estimate? It is an estimate that you setup as one of your master estimates to create estimates in order to test HCSS routines and see how they work. I always admonish users not to treat HeavyBid as a Black Box where they don’t know how calculations are performed in HeavyBid. So dig in and investigate but don’t create a test estimate from your  standard master. It has too many variables and data. Make a simple master and call it TESTMAST and setup one labor, one equipment and one crew with the combination of the two. You want the bare minimum so if you have to do a hand calculation you are not overwhelmed.  If you want to use mine download and restore the TESTMAST.  LINK
