Create estimate extras
Create estimate extras to add costs and labor for commonly used special items when there are no applicable labor codes.
Estimate extras allow you to add as much labor and cost to a single item in an estimating job as needed.
Estimate extras are often used for all labor done outside of your shop. For example, you can create estimate extras for items such as camber, rolling, and forming.
You can create and modify estimate extras in the Estimate Extra dialog box.
Create an estimate extra
To apply the new estimate extra to an existing estimate, open the estimate and use Global Edit. To apply the estimate extra to new estimate items, see Add an estimating item.
Add labor code formulas
See also Adjust labor codes and Create formulas.
Add child estimate extras
Child estimate extras allow you to add more than one labor operation to the main estimate extra item. In practice, this means that you can group many labor functions together into one estimate extra.
Add costs
Add labor times for a labor group
Add welding, burning, punching, or drilling
Add labor code operations
Labor code operations allow you to add the same operations for the selected estimate extra that are used for labor codes.
