To access the pipe & drape builder, first open up your desired project and navigate to Contract > Add > Custom Item/Package.

This custom item will be your pipe and drape set. For this example we simply named it "Drape Set". Enter the needed information and press save

Scroll down in your list of project items and locate your recently added custom inventory item. Select the three-dot edit symbol on the item and press Add Inventory item- Package.

Scroll down to  Builders and select the Pipe & Drape Builder.

Here, you can enter the dimensions of your desired set. The system will automatically use previously added pipe and drape items in your inventory to inform you of the necessary amount of each item you will need to fulfill the sizing. 

Enter your dimensions and select calculate to do this.

Here, you will see what the system suggests you use and how much. Here, you may still add any extra items needed to the set. Click here to learn how to add inventory items to the Pipe & Drape Builder.

Select Review Selections to review the items and press Add To Contract when ready.

The set will appear under your inventory list for the specific event. The set's contacts will automatically be hidden from your contract. 

Keep in mind that this custom set will not be added to your actual inventory but will be assigned to the specific project it was created for.
