Countertop Fabrication Software Features
Lapisoft follows the real workflow of a countertop shop, from the first customer record and estimate through fabrication, installation, invoicing and payment. These stone fabrication software features are part of one connected system; nothing on this page is a separate paid module.
The workflow
How a job runs through Lapisoft
Every job is different. The steps can run in a different order, and some can be skipped.
But the structure stays the same: one job, its units, and a clear status for each unit at every step. Everyone in the shop sees the same picture, and nothing gets lost between the office, the yard and the install crew.
- Create the customer and the job-site address.
- Make the estimate.
- Create the job and its units. A unit is one countertop piece or work area of a job.
- Schedule the template.
- Evaluate the unit and confirm the price.
- Hold or allocate material.
- Plan and complete fabrication.
- Schedule the installation or pickup. Completing it sets the unit to Fulfilled.
- Create the invoice, export it to QuickBooks Online when needed, record payment and close the job.
- Follow open work, balances, fabrication and yard stock in reports.
Accounts and contacts
Customers
Keep the account, contacts and job-site addresses together. Set customer types, lead sources and payment terms. Prices for stone, edges, sinks and accessories can be set by customer type or for an individual customer.
Linked accounts can show combined balances. Notes, documents, balances and statements stay on the account.
Draw and price
Estimating and quoting
Draw the countertop or make an estimate without a drawing. Lapisoft calculates area, backsplash and edge length and prices materials, thicknesses, edges, sinks, cutouts, accessories, custom costs, adjustments and tax.
Estimates can use in-stock material or custom-order material, be cloned, printed to PDF and combined in a Joint Estimation with one total.
Track every piece
Jobs and units
Create a job from estimates or build units from scratch. Each unit has its own status, so several countertops on the same job can move at different times. After the template, the unit is evaluated and the price is confirmed. Remade pieces are marked as refabs.
Daily Projects, Daily Summary and Daily Installs give the shop dedicated daily screens. Daily Summary brings together money in and out, fabrication and events.
Field calendar
Scheduling, maps and routes
Use one drag-and-drop field calendar for Template, Installation, Pickup, Service Call and Custom events. Assign teams, filter the calendar and see work that still needs a date.
Google Maps supports addresses, Street View and directions. A route summary shows each team’s stops, distance and drive time, with an optional optimized route.

Yard and purchasing
Slab inventory and purchasing
Our Yard tracks each slab by material, thickness, size, lot number, photo, location and price. Slabs can be Available, On Hold, Allocated, Gone or Return.
Track remnants, consignment material and QR labels. Purchase orders include extra charges, tax, supplier invoice references and delivery dates. Receiving creates slab records and labels, including partial deliveries. Slab returns and payments to suppliers are tracked too.
Shop floor
Fabrication
Set your own fabrication steps, workers and positions. Assign steps to workers, plan them on the fabrication calendar and use the daily list on the shop floor. Mark each step done and then confirm the unit as fabricated.
Fabrication statistics show area and edge length by step and by worker.

Get paid
Invoices, payments and statements
Create invoices from jobs. Record payments and split one payment across jobs and units when needed. Print payment receipts and customer statements, and see unpaid jobs and account balances.
For accounting, a Lapisoft customer can be linked to a QuickBooks Online customer. Each invoice can then be sent to QuickBooks Online with one click.

Ask in plain English
AI connector
Ask ChatGPT, Claude or Grok questions about live Lapisoft data in plain English. The connector is read-only, uses each person’s own Lapisoft permissions and can be enabled, blocked or revoked by an administrator.
“What installations do we have today?”
“Which estimates from last week haven’t turned into jobs?”
“What slabs of Calacatta do we have in stock?”
“How much did we collect this month?”
Example questions. The answers come from your own Lapisoft data.
