Job Estimation
Job Estimation is a tool for producing price estimates of your job. The Job
Estimation stores accounting information for each job, calculates price
automatically, and gives a price estimate. The information can be changed
or customized to reflect your costs and needs.
This feature is intended to be a guideline and therefore all results should be
thoroughly reviewed before basing any business or financial agreements upon
them.
The estimation is calculated based on some elements of your design like the
number of characters or the material area. These values are automatically
gathered from your document. Other values like preparation time must be
manually entered when doing the job estimation.
The cost elements used in job estimation are grouped in Category, Item
