Reusing Selection Groups

Feature RequestIn Progress

The ability to reuse selection items in templates and simply change the cost code/location.

Example: Cabinet Door Style

We offer 5 door styles, but I need to be able to select a style for different locations. Since the door styles offered don’t change per location, I want to create one group in the Selections Library and then reuse those options in different areas designated by a different cost code and/or location.

Currently, the only way to do this is cloning the group and changing the name i.e Kitchen Perimeter Cabinets, Island Cabinets, Powder Bath Cabinets, etc. The issue I have here is that should there be a change in the future, I’ll have to edit each individual group even though only one option may have changed (adding or deleting a style). Leaves room for error.

    Hey @Amanda Gerding,

    Thanks for the detailed feedback here.

    Our plan is to remove the Cost Code and Location fields from the Selections Library itself. This way, you can create a generic selection group (like "Cabinet Door Style") in your library just once.

    Then, when you pull that group into a project or a template, you'll be able to assign the specific cost code and location at that point.

    This should solve the issue you're running into and make managing your selections much more efficient. We'll keep you posted on our progress with this.
