Handle variations & changes
Change a job after it starts and keep the pricing honest.
What this is for
Jobs change — the customer adds a panel, the scope grows. A variation records the change and re-prices it, so the extra work is captured and billed instead of quietly eating your margin.
Step by step
- 1
Open the job that has changed and go to the Accounts tab.
- 2
Under Variations, click Add variation and describe the extra or changed work.
- 3
It is priced the same way as a quote line, and added to the job's value.
- 4
Approve the variation so it flows into the job's money side.
Tips & gotchas
- Record variations as they happen — a change captured now is a change you get paid for later.
