I've been using lightwright for as long as I've been using VWX so its never come up before. BUT....
Now I need to get VWX to be able to do a "counts" sheet without the help of LW. Essentially a gear list that can be slung to the rental house.
I want to make a report that give me a quantity of each of the fixture types in my show so I can make a rental gear list.
As it is, I just have a template that has each item listed but I have to manually enter the quantities. Of I can get VWX to count the instruments but then I have to take that number and enter it on the appropriate line.
And as for cable, I have no idea how to get a count in.
Ideally, I'd like VWX to work like an excell spreadsheet and give me a formula like
"lookup the text in the cell to the left, count that quantity, multiply it by 1.15 (for spares), round up to the nearest whole number."
Is this even a possibility?
Anyone have any basic templates they wouldn't mind demonstrating?
Or maybe there's a far better way to achieve this?
