How does estimate version control work in Obrarum?
Share a version
When you generate the link, that version is marked as sent and locked, so you know exactly what your client has.
Your client responds
When your client approves or declines, that version is marked with their answer, so you know what they accepted.
Create a new version
Obrarum copies your chapters and items into a new, open version, so you change what you need without touching the one you sent.
Open any version
Pick a version from the list and see its status: draft, sent, approved or rejected. You find the one your client has in a moment.

Frequently asked questions
Can I keep version control on a construction estimate?
Yes: each change that matters becomes a new version, so you know which one the client received. In Obrarum, the version you share locks and you create another to change anything.
How do I know which version of the estimate my client approved?
By checking the status of each version: draft, sent, approved or rejected. In Obrarum, when your client responds from the link, that version is marked with their answer.
Can I edit the version I already sent my client?
You shouldn't: if you change what the client already saw, you no longer know what they accepted. In Obrarum that version is locked, and you make changes in a new version that starts as a copy of the previous one.
Do I lose the previous version when I change a construction estimate?
No: a new version is a copy, and the previous one stays as it was. In Obrarum you open them all from the version list, each with its status.
Is there construction estimating software with versions and a free plan?
Yes. Obrarum has a Free plan that never expires and needs no card, with one version per estimate. Unlimited versions are on the Pro and Business plans.
