Some Active Lumber Items are Missing in the Design Drop Down?

When I create a design and want to swap out some of the lumber cleats, the drop down list doesn't show those materials..

There are a couple things to check:


  • Go to the Inventory module>lumber.  Double-check that the materials that you will use are marked as ACTIVE. This is a checkbox at the bottom of the screen for each material.


  • In Inventory in the Lumber material tab also confirm that if this material will be used as a CLEAT material (versus only for skids, rub strips or sheathing) that the check box for CLEAT is checked


  • In Preferences>Materials and based on the style of crate that you're building, confirm that the Material Groups that you're selecting show only ACTIVE material. If you de-activate or delete a material from Inventory it will not automatically change in the Material Group fields.
