Job sheets are used as a base form, output to progress and Order. They are created per Inventory group (per product)
Job sheets, work orders or Order forms, can be used for multiple different purposes, they can vary from a simple,yet automated order form to a more customised Jobsheet with automated calucations for deductions, tube sizing, fabrics and Bill of Material (BOM).

Job Sheet Parts and Purposes

  1. First sheet should be the Data sheet this where the raw Quote/Order data is place starting at column AV and the Data Setting table is that controls the adding of rows to each sheet that requires it when the Quote/ Order lines exceed the template. The template should be designed to fit on one page initially.
  2. The Job Sheet is the base form output to progress and Order so this is a production cutting sheet or a Purchase Order for a buy–in product.
  3. There is no limit on the number of additional sheets that are used for production.
  4. Labels sheet controls the format of the labels to be printed for this product type. This requires the installation of BUZ Labels Windows program to print to a Label Printer.
  5. Check Measure sheet is a form that can be output to best suit the Check Measure process with space provided for updated measurements etc.
  6. Components sheet is the Bill of Materials or recipe for taking components from stock for inventory control and reordering purposes.

Set up Job Sheets 

Job sheets are used to output processed Orders labels and BOM (Bill of Materials)

They are created per Inventory group 

Job sheets can have multiple tabs;


  • Data
  • Job Sheet
  • Check Measure
  • Labels
  • Components
  • Packing list
  • Deductions
  • Powder Coating Order Form 


Data Sheet

The first sheet in the Job Sheet Workbook, should always be the Data sheet - this is where the raw Order data is placed from your processed order.

The Data sheet has a “DataSettings” named area (click here for More information), this sets the areas of your Sheets that have formulas and enables them to Grow there should be NO deductions or other notes within the Growing area. It sets the pages and the amount of pages that you want to print in the PDF.  

NB: If you have a sheet that will never need to grow , such as a calculation sheet the Data settings should be left blank for Right Column and a Zero in the First Row, Last Row and Inc. in PDF columns.

The “Check Measure” Sheet is set as below with False in the Include in PDF column but it will print in PDF when a Check Measure is required. 

Starting at column AV is where BUZ sits the Data from the Order that you are Printing, this information is not saved on the Job Sheet but exported to the template each time. The Customer information sits at AV5 and across and the Ordered Items sit from AV11 and below

Job Sheet

The Job Sheet is the “Production cutting sheet” or a “Purchase Order” for a product it pulls all its information from the Data Tab and you use formulas to get this information to be correct for your deductions or information required.

There is no limit on the number of additional sheets that are used for production and can be edited to suit your individual products. If you are using Generic Group Options the Generic Job Sheet that goes along with this may only need a few tweaks to be correct for you. The more you change the Generic Group Options the more you will have to change the Job Sheet.

NB: if you add in more columns and have to adjust the print area then the scale of the barcode may be affected and it may not scan.

Check Measure Sheet

The Check Measure sheet is a form that can be output to best suit the Check Measure process. You may want to provide space for updated measurements etc, If your Check Measure person has not got access to BUZ themselves.

The Check Measure sheet is available to print or View when the order has been accepted and a Check Measure is required. The Order will be set to a status or “Waiting for Check Measure”



Job Sheet Considerations 

  1. Job Sheets are processed left to right and top to bottom. Excel will sometimes compensate for not sticking to this rule but Aspose, the program BUZ uses to generate the PDF's from Excel does not. So this means that a sheet cannot refer to cells on another sheet to the right of the current one because it will not have it values calculated at that point in the process.
  2. Cells in the body of the job sheet (the area that grows when number of line items exceed template) must NOT BE MERGED

To spread text across multiple cells:

    1. Select the cells value is to spread across on the first row.
    2. Right click, select Format Cells, Alignment and Centre Across Selection and then copy down.

Formating for Inches (Fractions)

  1. Select cell(s) to be formatted.
  2. Right click cell(s), select Format Cells, Number
  3. Select Category: Fraction
  4. Select desired Type

Note: If format doesn't work it is because Excel treats the number as text so type +0 on the end and that forces Excel to treat it as a number. 

Using Excel Name Manager

Named Areas are added using Name Manager, in Excel 2013 this is found on the FORMULAS tab near the middle.

  1. Select New
  2. The box opens and Type the Name, in Scope select the sheet being referenced and then click where the red arrow is pointing and select the cell containing the value. Click OK.

Job Sheet Formula Explanations

Formula used to produce a “due date”

for a Supplier / Factory  that doesn’t equal a weekend date and is 2 or 3 days prior to your Follow Up date (Install Date)

Step 1: Follow up date -3 for expected complete production date =LEFT(Data!BA5,10)-3

followup-date -3, picking up 10 to the left to only select the date

Step 2: Date Formula;    =IF(WEEKDAY(AB2,2)=6,AB2+2,IF(WEEKDAY(AB2,2)=7,AB2+1,AB2))  

If follow-up date equals Saturday then follow-up date plus 2 days

If follow-up date equals Sunday then follow-up date plus 1 day
