Did you know you can add a fee item, that will calculate based on the sum of cost, price, profit, weight or hours of the other items inside the same quote project/estimate or assembly?

This is helpful if you:

...

The special variables are calculated from other items in the project, either the sibling items (and assemblies) . So that are inside the same assembly as the fee item OR for the project as a whole.

For sibling level values, any non-fee items that are found in the same parent assembly (or quote, for root level fee items) will be included. If, for example, the fee item is found inside an assembly, a separate an item found in the root of the project will not be included in the sums for that fee.

For project level values, any non-fee items that are found anywhere in the project are added together.

Here are the possible variables

  • weight - sibling level - the sum of item weights as noted in the materials options of items

  • hours - sibling level - the sum of item labor hours as noted in labor options of items

  • price - sibling level - the sum of prices of items

  • cost - sibling level - the sum of cost of items

  • profit - sibling level - the sum of the profit of items

  • project_weight - project level - the sum of item weights as noted in the materials options of items

  • project_hours - project level - the sum of item labor hours as noted in labor options of items

  • project_price - project level - the sum of prices of items

  • project_cost - project level - the sum of cost of items

  • project_profit - project level - the sum of the profit of items
