I quote jobs for drilling multiple holes into solid steel bars that range from 1.5 in to 12 in in diameter. Hole diameters vary from 0.75 in, 1 in, 1.5 in, 2 in, all the way up to 8 in, and a single bar can have any number of these holes spaced along its full length. Right now I juggle the numbers in a spreadsheet, but I need a faster, cleaner way. Please build the solution in FileMaker Pro. The calculator must let me choose the run size (bar diameter) and each branch size (hole diameter) from drop-down menus, enter the quantity of identical holes, and then return an instant price. The pricing logic is advanced: it has to consider the run size, every hole size, and the total number of holes, with the flexibility to factor in changes to material, labour, or machine rates later. I’d like a straightforward layout that an operator can open, make the selections, type a quantity, and immediately see the final price plus a line-item breakdown if required. Include a way for me to update base costs without touching scripts. Deliverables: • A ready-to-use FileMaker file containing the data tables, layout, and scripts for the calculator • Clear notes on where to adjust cost variables and add new sizes in the future • A brief walkthrough (video or PDF) so staff can start quoting right away If anything in the description needs clarification before you begin, just let me know.

As an experienced data analyst and expert in using MS Excel, I can create a robust, user-friendly and efficient FileMaker Pro calculator for your steel hole pricing needs. My skills extend beyond simple data entry, and I can design complex algorithms in Excel that will accurately calculate costs based on material, labor, machine rates, and updated base costs without altering the scripts. In addition to my proficiency in FileMaker Pro, I've practiced web scraping which gives me a unique perspective on how to bring together data from different sources and produce clean results that you require. With your varying steel bar and hole sizes as well as different quantities of holes, agility is critical. My adeptness to handle large quantities of data combined with my quick thinking enables me to create an efficient tool for Run & Branch selection. My spreadsheet can be created in such a manner that selecting the sizes and entering quantities will return instant prices with a detailed breakdown if required. Finally, I'll prepare a comprehensive guide so that your staff will be able to jump right into using

Hole pricing for steel bar drilling is more nuanced than most people build for. The relationship between diameter, depth, and material grade isn't linear, and a flat per-size rate breaks down fast once you're past 6in. The calc logic is what makes or breaks this tool. Getting the FileMaker formula right for hole size, depth, material type, and labor rate matters far more than how the layout looks. I'd build the calculation layer first, validate it against your current pricing, then build the interface around it so the math is solid before anything else. Deliverables: - FileMaker layout with inputs for hole size, depth, material, and labor rate - Script-driven pricing calc with quote summary output - Input validation for out-of-range values - Clean, quote-ready output field 5 days, $250. Three things that'd help me scope this properly: 1. Do you have a current pricing sheet or formula I can work from? Even a rough spreadsheet is useful. 2. Do you need a mobile-friendly layout, or is this desktop only? 3. Should this be a standalone FileMaker file or linked into something you already have running?
