Number your cables while your planning the job. Put a little note on each cable with the wire number on your blue prints. Get panduit printer labels & setup a spread sheet. Put every wire number in there. Print 4 sets.

Set 1 & 2 are for both ends of each cable on roughin.
Set 3 & 4 are for both ends of each cable at trim.

These label sets will be helpful because if there are some leftover.. you missed a wire. The spreadsheet is saved as documentation with a notes column to the right of the wire number column telling where each one goes.

It will end up costing less to do it this way if you add up material and time saved. Its like a minute per cable to use a DYMO or ID Expert. If you enter all the numbers in the spreadsheet while your planning the job you basically only have to do it once.
