How can we improve the financials?

Estimates - material and labor cost with own markup

Currently items under products and services have three quantities, Cost, markup and price. It would be awesome to have: material cost, material cost markup, labor cost, labor cost markup and a final price. And on the estimate have those two extra columns as well with totals at the bottom.

Having this feature would allow us to track labor cost and material cost per job with out having to jump through a lot of calculation hoops to get there.

Thank you for your input and votes on this topic. We recently added subtotals for Labor and Materials in all financial documents. Markup is displayed for all line items, including labor, and can be quickly edited.. The new markup slider allows you to quickly adjust markup for all line items in an estimate.
I would love your feedback on improvements we have made and if any changes still needed.

    This would be helpful, it's so clunky how it's currently designed. I see Job Nimbus said this was "planned" in 2017. It's 2021, what happened? Seems like a lot of people would like to see this change.

    We would prefer if you could have the ability to mark up each of the products individually for the standard job and then have a final adjustment that would allow an adjustment to be made globally rather than individually as the last person has suggested. Although we accept that this global adjustment would mean that you could more easily see your net cost and then introduce the mark-up.

    We would like as stated before to have the products broken down by labour, plant, materials and subcontractors.

    I can send our current spreadsheet if you would like to see how this works to give us a total for each of the cost types per job.

    This is a great idea, but I don't want to have to change my labor cost markup on every line item, it should be per job estimate, not per line item. The same for labor cost markup. Then if I change my material and labor markup per customer, it is much easier to manage and make changes to.
