Setting a Cost Estimate
Whilst performing a job, the User may be required to set the estimated value of the job due to give the Client an idea of how much the work is likely to cost. This can be done using the "Set Estimate" button.
1. On the Job Detail screen, select the "Set Estimate" button to display the Set Estimate pop up.
2. Enter the estimate costs for Labour, Parts and if there are any Plant/Equipment/Miscellaneous too. The user also needs enter the Number of Attendees used in the calculation of the Labour Cost. If there is any documentation to help with the estimate costs then they can be uploaded here as well. If there is any confusion with what each field is, hover over the "i" next to it for more information.
Note: Please be aware that entering estimates does not affect the Total Cost of the job. Even with the estimates added, the system will still calculate as it normally does.
