Draft Packages
Ability to save all packages in draft and issue at different times.
We may prepare all packages in the document matrix at once but maybe awaiting specific documents to some packages such as a BoQ which needs to be issued with a particular package and may be sent at a later date as opposed to current situation where all packages are issued at once1 voteHi Nicholas, thanks for your feedback. At this stage this isn’t on our radar. What we recommend is sending out your packages in a staged send out. Feel free to get in touch if you’d like a run through of this.

Flag Invitation Errors via email or within my account
It would be great if I could be notified that there are email Errors within the Invitations & Responses of a Project I'm working on. Perhaps a message each week to flag if there are any email errors, or an alert banner within the project in my account.
3 votesHi, we try to limit the amount of automated email that we send out. As a work around, we recommend filtering by response status so you can see all the email errors at a glance.

Full trade names are getting cut short in the "Trades Required" stage of setting up a new tender.
When starting a new project, at the "Trades Required" stage, extending the trade name to display full trade name as opposed to cutting it short will reduce selecting the incorrect trade, ie, Balustrade with SS wire, Balustrades - aluminium..., Balustrades - Stainless... and so forth.
1 voteHi Mark,
Thank you for your suggestion We understand that it would be frustrating when your trade names are cut short. With only so much screen space we have to limit trade names to a certain length.
We recommend tightening your trades names in the ‘trades’ section of your Address Book to help avoid this problem. Thank you again for getting in touch. -
Small change to add contact to tender
on the invites and responses screen when you click on 'Add Contact to Tender' you first have to click in the box before you start typing a company name. I suggest you change it so that you can just start typing rather than having to click in the box first.
1 voteGenerally you will need to click the search box before typing on any web browser. Apologies there isn’t a way around this at the moment.

Allow "standard" users to export lists to excel/pdf and not just Administrators
Currently this feature is visible to all Users however only works when done by an "Admin". It would be great if all Users had the ability to export these lists.
4 votesThank you for sharing your feedback. We understand that all users being able to see the export button is frustrating. However, due to security reasons we will only allow administrators to export this information. If you need to export this information, please speak with an account adminstrator.

Provide facilities for Consultants as you do for Trade Contractors
Provide facilities for Consultants as you do for Trade Contractors
1 voteAppreciate the feedback. EstimateOne is currently committed to bringing Head Contractors and Subcontractors together in the construction industry, and we still believe there is more to be done. We can see the value in supporting consultants, however we could not provide a timeframe on when that might be.
