Why it's laid out this way
- The core charge on its own line, with how it comes back
- Labor per hour, so the customer sees the time, not just a number
- A parts deposit before you order, so a no-show doesn't leave you holding the part
- Terms that say you'll call before adding work
Or build it by chat
Tell Redline "quote Dana Whitfield: call-out, scan, reman alternator $260, core charge, belt, 2 hours, supplies, 40% deposit" and it builds the itemized estimate with the deposit, saved on her file. If she wants a reman and a new alternator side by side, the quote composer in Money (Solo) lays out good, better and best.
There's no approval link for her to tap. Get the yes on the phone, log the call, then bill the parts deposit on Solo before you order. See quotes and estimates or contacts and CRM.
Price the job before you open the parts app.
Redline is free to start. Say the parts and the hours, and it builds the estimate.
