Materials vs. Labor Categories
When estimating jobs there are currently only identifiers for “Material” or “Labor.”
This is grossly insufficient. There are other categories that apply to jobs/budgets and, lacking the ability to categorize them, they can be cumbersome to analyze with only two fixed categories.
Examples of other categories of costs include:
Permitting Fees,
Overhead,
Disposal Fees, etc.
These (and similar) are neither Labor, nor Materials, but they constitute costs directly associated to a specific Job.
Please expand the capability of the Estimating tool to allow for creation of additional cost categories.
