In this section, we use the information you provide to help calculate every Quote using your shops unique data and gross margin on all jobs.
In this section you can choose two different ways to set your markups on parts pricing.
- By Markup. If you buy a part for $1, you can choose a markup percent. Example: Entering 1.8 would mean a retail price of $1.80
- By Gross Margin Percent. Example: Entering 65 would mean every part would have a gross profit margin of 65% for you
For any price range you can use either method
