Entering data for a new project

If you have a Finalcad license (Essential, Evolution, Expert and Enterprise plans), you can create a project directly in the Finalcad app. 

After logging into your account, follow these steps:

1. Tap on the < + > icon.
2. Tap on < Create a project >.

Tip
You can also create a project using our online Finalcad Manager platform. For additional information, see the Finalcad Manager platform User Manual. 

1. Add a photo
2. give your project a name.
3. Then add the default phase for your project (a list of standard phases is available). You can always change the default phase later using our Finalcad Manager platform.
4. Next, you will need to give your construction site a name. This is what is called an “Operation.” You will find more information on the next screen.
5. Tap on < Create > to confirm.

Tip
Depending on the size of your construction site, we recommend creating one project per building/block. 

Choosing an operation

After tapping on < Operation > on the previous screen:

1. You can link this project to an existing operation, namely a construction site you’ve already registered in Finalcad.
2. You can create a new construction site using the < + > icon.
3. Enter the construction site name and your internal reference number.
4. Tap on < Create > to confirm. This will bring you back to the previous screen. You can now confirm the creation of your project.
