The idea of a schedule would be great and eliminate unnecessary guess work as to which tech installed and terminated what table on what date. Now after reviewing the video, I have a question about the estimated cable length field. What do all those three letter acronyms under the title heading for that field mean? The cable length is in each row but do not know what the row headings mean? Duplicating the sheet and so far, looks identical to the video example. Thanks

Because the company also does security, the 5025 and 5026 probably relate to those types of cables. In real life the spreadsheet is T.M.I. for your average professional installer; however, for the people someone hires standing on the corner or a 'sparkie' it is probably needed. I can imagine attempting to make an Excel spreadsheet for my place: Dish Network Comcast KSU DSL A/V The 2-4-6 port jacks would drive anyone be a professional crazy.
