To bring your PlanSwift estimate list into Rapid Estimator, simply open PlanSwift to the document you want to import, then click on the PlanSwift icon on the Links ribbon in Rapid Estimator.  The import wizard automatically retrieves the estimate list cost codes and quantities from PlanSwift, matches the cost codes to the current costs and transfers the items into the open estimate.
