Estimates can be built and managed from the dedicated “Estimates” section in the mobile app.
What is a Mobile Estimate?
An estimate generally involves a skilled service technician assessing a job in person to create a detailed breakdown of tasks, required parts, supplies, workforce, and time. It’s called an “estimate” because, while precise, it may be adjusted as the project unfolds. Having a mobile system for managing estimates enhances efficiency, allowing the entire process to be completed with the customer on-site in real time.
