Type the measurement. Get the price.

How does dimensional quoting work?

You pick an item from your list, type the dimensions you measured, and Biztricks computes the quantity and multiplies it by your rate. The mode attached to the item decides which dimensions it asks for — nothing is converted by hand and no spreadsheet formula has to be maintained.

Height is asked for before width, because that is the order the trade quotes in and the order the customer's document prints. Those two were deliberately aligned: the builder screen and the proposal must never describe the same panel differently.

What does one priced line look like?

Here is a real seeded item at its seeded rate, measured and priced exactly the way Biztricks would do it.

How is a quote organised?

Lines are grouped, and the word for a group is your trade's own. interior and modular fit-out groups by room, building materials trading groups by category, design and site services groups by phase — the heading on the builder and the heading on the printed proposal both change with it.

Each group carries its own subtotal, so a customer reading the proposal sees what the kitchen costs and what the bedroom costs, not one figure for the whole flat. That is usually the first question they ask, and answering it in the document saves the phone call.

A quote also carries a payment schedule and your terms. Both arrive pre-filled for your trade and both are yours to rewrite.

Where do the prices come from?

From your item list — or, when the job came through a builder or developer you have an agreed rate with, from that partner's prices.

When you add a line at the general rate for a client who sits under a partner, Biztricks offers you the partner's price rather than silently substituting it. One tap takes it; ignoring the prompt keeps the rate you typed. Nothing is ever changed behind your back on a quote you are in the middle of. More about partner pricing.
