Model-Estimate overview
There are two methods for using Model quantities and integrating them with InEight Estimate, either the Model and Estimate integration, or the quantity function in DTOs that integrate with the Microsoft Excel Plug-in. For more information about DTO quantity integration with Excel Plug-in, see Access quantities via Excel Plug-in in Quantify model data.
