    Hi threerivers74,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. I'm an AI assistant. I'll do my best to help you until someone from the support team is available.

    Currently, Jotform does not support building an app by directly uploading a document with data to generate prices and itemized lists automatically. However, you can create forms where customers select options, and you can set up calculations to generate prices based on their choices.

    If you want, I can guide you on how to create such a form with pricing calculations.

    Give it a try and let us know how it goes.

    Hi threerivers74,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Regarding your question about building an app by uploading a document with your pricing data, currently, Jotform does not support creating an app directly from an uploaded document to generate prices and itemized lists automatically.

    But you can create a Jotform App or Store where you manually add your products or services with their prices and options. Customers can then select what they want, and the app will calculate the total price and provide an itemized list based on their choices. Here’s how you can do it:

    1. On your My Workspace page, click on the Downward Arrow icon on the top-left side of the screen.
    2. Then, in the menu that opens up, select My Apps.
