Kits speed up quoting by making it easy to select just one item instead of entering multiples items individually on a Quote.
Kits are a collection of materials, labour and miscellaneous costs that, when combined, make up an item that can be added to any quote in Tradify. They are a great way to bundle costs together that make up typical services for a business.
Kits can then be quickly added to a quote and any cost/quantity adjustments made if necessary. They also have their own description which displays as a single line on the quote sent to the customer.
Important Note: Kits are exclusive to Quotes. They cannot be used within Jobs, Invoices or Purchase Orders, however, you can transfer the line items of a Kit over to each of these features.
