Hi All, I have a few questions regarding the cell format in the schedule.
1. is there a way to add a thousand separator "," to all the numbers in price column?
2. is it possible to add a dollar sign icon?
3. Can we input the words "grand total" in the cell before the 122186.
Thanks so much.

Digit grouping and the $ sign should be possible using Properties.
I don't know of any way to add the words Grand Total, though.

Thanks for your response, But I still don't quite understand. I've already set the digit grouping in the windows control panel, but I still can't add the dollar sign and separator in Archicad.

Digit grouping from your OS won't help here.
You'll have to use the Property Manager and create a new property which does what you want. This property can then be inserted into the schedule in place of the price information for the element.
As an example:
I don't know of an easy way to split the price data for inserting the commas, but maybe someone who has already done so will chime in.

The problem with creating a property to show $ symbol, is it will now be a string and it won't total in the schedule.
I would just live with "$" in the column/row title which you can customise to say what ever you want.

Yes, I didn't think of that. Which shows how little I use Properties. 😅
