Estimates

Estimates allow users to create detailed Bill Of Material and Product Routings and helps calculate a realistic costing for a specific line item. Using estimations helps ensure you are not under-pricing work or over-pricing so your company can maintain a competitive edge. There are 3 basic steps to creating an estimate:

1. Create a list of required materials (aka a Bill Of materials)

2. Create a detail routing of how the job will be completed

3. Add a suitable mark-up & mark the estimation as complete

Using a Bill Of Material list also allows users to directly raise purchase enquiries quickly and efficiently, improving the accuracy of the final quote price.
