Variations are usually added to the parent job but you can also add variations to a job section if applicable. Once the variation (quote) is accepted and converted to a job, it will automatically update the section details taking into account the variation value.
1. In this example, we are adding a variation to a job section with a Fixed Price of $1,200.00.
2. Click the Variations tab and click the + New button.
3. Enter the details such as quote name, and select the pricing method and in this example, we have a Fixed Price of $350.00 for this test variation.
4. Once the quote is accepted, you can convert it to Job and select either of the following two options.
Update the existing Job with this Quote - this recalculates the job total and increase accordingly.
Create a new Job from this Quote - this creates a totally new job linked to the variation and therefore has no impact on the job section where the variation is created from.
5. In this example, we can see that the new Total Ex Tax for this job section has changed from $1200 to $1,550.
6. Changes will also leave trails in the Audit Log area which is located at the bottom of the quote or job screen.
