Quote-Groups

Quote-Groups shows prices for each quote group. Line items are aggregated so a group sub-total can appear on the quotation without listing every item. Use key text strings (###QG…) in templates, and double-click items to edit text per quotation.

🧾 Quote-Groups

This button takes you to the Quote Groups section showing you the prices for each quote group setup previously.

Each group contains the line items that will be ‘aggregated’ to create a single total cost for that group of items so that a sub-total cost for this group can be displayed on the quotation, thus not displaying each line item cost in the quotation.

The example below has five Quote Groups – Fascia and Gutter group is displayed.

🧩 Using Quote Groups in report templates

Once a Quote Group is defined, you can then create a report template that incorporates the Quote Group Details using key text strings for that group individually or as a table.

Key text string

Description

###QG"QGName"-MatSubTotal

Sub-total of Materials for specified Quote Group name

###QG"QGName"-LabSubTotal

Sub-total of Labour for specified Quote Group name

###QG"QGName"-Total

Total of Materials and Labour for specified Quote Group name

For example for the FasciaGutter quote group described above you would use:

  • ###QGFasciaGutter-LabSubTotal

  • ###QGFasciaGutter-Total
