Creating a New Job

In ESTmep and CAMduct, you can create a new job using any of the following methods:

• From the Utility Bar, click the New Job button.
• From the File menu, click File New Job.
• From the Job Browser dialog, click the New Job button.

Clicking the New Job button from the Utility Bar displays the Job Wizard dialog. On the Job Wizard dialog, to create a new job, choose one of the following options on the New Job tab:

• Takeoff New Job: Select "Takeoff New Job" then click Next to display the Enter Job Information dialog. This creates a New Job using the Global database, creating a .MAJ file type. Price increases done to the main database affect this job when it is re-opened post the changes.
• Takeoff New Archived Job: With this option, you choose New Mode, <Database Conflict dialog> , Enter Job and Customer Information, and then click Finish. By default the job is saved to C:/Users/Public/Documents/Autodesk/Fabrication <version>/Imperial Content/<version>/PROJECTS/ , but you can specify a different location.
