Here's a Lean tip

I discovered this by accident, but it is a time saver. 
Once your takeoff is complete in On Screen Takeoff - this data needs to be transferred to the excel sales template.  Rather than retyping it all, you can simply cut and paste the quantities from the takeoff tab, right into your quantity column in excel.  Since the excel template has the widths and heights broken up, these will have to be typed in manually and in the same order they appear in the takeoff tab.  But at least the quantities don't have to be retyped.
Maybe in the future, more data can be cut and pasted from OST into the template, but for now this is what I found helpful.

Below is the video tutorial for this tip.  It has been added to the OST playlist on the W&W You Tube channel.
