This Help Article covers:

If a Job has been Estimated, and the Estimate has been Accepted, on [+ADD] from the Sales Expandable Section, Katipolt will display a Charge Up Invoice Page.

Although the Estimate has been made using Katipolt's Quotes feature, it would have been saved as an Estimate.

Unlike a Quote, where the Quoted or Variation Amounts are 'fixed' and can only be Invoice up to those Amounts, Estimates are not 'fixed' and can vary over or under the Estimated Amount, so to be able to Invoice the variable Amount we use Katipolt's Charge Up Invoice feature.

Using Katipolt's Charge Up Invoice feature, Invoicing an Estimated Job can be done two ways:

Invoicing using Get Costs is the same as Invoicing for a Charge Up. Labour and/or Materials used for the Job are pulled into the Charge Up Invoice using Get Cost and a Margin is applied to that Labour and/or Materials to calculate the Sell Price, for more information on adding a Charge Up Invoice see the Help Article: "Sales - Charge Up Jobs - Sales Invoice (Add - Edit)"

Invoicing using an Ad-Hoc line is where an Ad-Hock line is entered into the Charge Up Invoice and a Sell Price is manually entered. This is useful when you want to enter the Estimated Amount, I.E. "As per Estimated 100% $XXX.XX"

💡 TIP: If using an Ad-Hoc line, make the Cost Price $1.00 as the actual cost of Labour and/or Materials used on the Job will already be on and display in the Profit & Loss, and you don't want to add further costs.

⚠️ NOTE: If you use an Ad-Hoc line, the Customer may still be entitled to a breakdown of the Labour and/or Materials used for the Job.
