HazMat Line on Invoice

Post by mikes_ss »

After upgrading manager, it has added HazMat as a line for labor under SubTotal. Before using the old manager it would automatically add the hazmat into the labor portion of the subtotal.

With the way it is now it adds another step to entering the total in the cash register as you have to add the hazmat separately. Is there a way to change it back to the way it was with the old manager to add the HazMat fee into the labor subtotal automatically?

We're looking at this change. I believe it was done to accommodate a legal requirement to itemize hazmat. However, we're checking that, and will modify the template to move hazmat above the subtotal if not fold it back into the respective labor or part total.

I like this, we manually enter invoices into Quick Books, this would make it easier to enter the enviro fees. but I would call it Haz Mat or Env. Fee instead of just fees, I can see customers questioning that.

Note: If there is HazMat and Tire Fees on the invoice, it prints as Fees. If the invoice only has a tire fee and no hazmat it prints as Tire Fees. If there are no Tire Fees and only hazmat, it prints Hazmat. If there are neither, it is blank.

California law requires the hazmat fee to be separated out on its own line.
We can"t charge a shop supplies or fees without labeling it as to what it is.

We don't integrate QB with Mitchell, so it would be much more convenient for us to have parts be just the parts we installed, labor be for the labor on the parts WE installed, sublet work be separate from the labor, all fees (tire disposal, hazmat, and shop supplies) and all discounts (parts and labor) be listed on separate lines at the bottom right. Here are a few images to illustrate what I'm talking about....

Currently (please excuse the typo in my comments where I said $20; should be $25):
