Learn about the project scope automation feature and how to generate material and labor lists

Updated this week

Production Managers can generate material and labor lists for a project using Hover's project scope automation feature, and this article shows you how.

Note: Project Scope is only accessible to people in your organization with "Admin" and "Job Manager" permissions.

Open Project Scope


  • Log into your Hover account

  • Click Estimates at the top of the page

  • Locate the job in your list and click Project Scope

Note: the "Project Scope" button will appear greyed-out until a Sales Rep marks a job as sold.

Information in the Project Scope


The top of this page recaps the project financials, trades, property measurements, and includes links to other things like the 3D model, measurement PDF, and more.

Material and Labor Lists

Scrolling through the project scope, you will see the pre-populated material and labor lists organized by trade type.

For each material line item, you can make edits to the variation (color or size), quantity, unit of measure, and unit cost.

Material List example:

The labor list functions the same as the material list, and similar fields can be edited.
