Quick Estimate Button

Post by Rob@SD-AR »

What are the chances of getting a Quick Estimate Button added to make use of the All Sub Estimates report, this is what we use to upsell to customers?

Also, any way to change the default number of items included on the All Sub Estimates from 4 to 8 or 9 revisions?

Hey guys,

Thanks for reaching out about this. There are actually a few options available for doing so. See below.

One is already available for changing which Sub Estimates print in the All Sub Estimates report.

The other one or two:
• Quick Estimate Button that prints the Sub Estimate report
- Prompt user for Sub Estimate Selections with a Select All
- Global setting for Include All or Prompt for which Sub Estimates
• Option to add the All Sub Estimates Report to the Quick Invoice button as an additional template
- If no sub-estimates then don’t print
- If sub-estimates exist, prompt user for Sub Estimate Selections with a Select All
- Honor Global setting for Include All or Prompt for which Sub Estimates
- Option to send to a different printer than the invoice printer

Here’s how to change the default number of sub estimate revisions:

Michael, thank you for the reply.

I completely understand how to change from 4 to 8 or 9 sub-estimates, but if i close the program and reopen it i have to go through and rest them all over again. It would be helpful if we could select the default number of estimates, but that's minor in the grand scheme of things.

I use the Quick Invoice and Quick Vehicle buttons often, and do not want to replace either of them to do the sub-estimates.

Having a prompt every time you print an estimate would be a pain, just being able to set the default settings, and then if we wanted to select different for a given estimate we could just do it how we do now, but getting an additional button would be great!
