Trades in the Construction Schedule

The trades play the most important role in construction phase planning, alongside the date. Therefore, the trades are intelligently set up in the BauMaster application in the overview of all project settings.

In the project settings, you can activate individual trades for the desired project and assign them a color.

Reminder: The construction schedule has up to five levels - you can define a specific trade for each level! (Construction phase > Construction phase > Task > Subtask >

When a trade filter is active, you can recognize this by the grey-highlighted funnel icon.
