What to do if a Price List is updated on your Job
- Kye Hush

Sometimes while working on a job, the price list/rate card applied to the job may be changed or updated.
This could be for a number of reasons e.g. the wrong price list/rate card was selected at job opening, activities on the price list/rate card were added or updated etc.
If this happens, it is very important to refresh the data on your job to reflect the correct new or updated price list/rate card.

REFRESHING PRICE QUOTE DATA
In order to make any changes to the price quote, the price quote status will need to be set to 'under preparation'.
If your price quote has already been ‘externally approved' by the client, you will need to either leave the price quote as is as it’s already been signed off at the original price, or create a new price quote for the client with the updated rates.
In the jobs module > jobs list > select the job that needs updating
Go to the price sub menu > change the price quote status to ‘under preparation’
Go to the lines tab > click the ‘update the prices according to the job’s price list’ icon
In the pop-up select the values that need to be updated
Click ok
Your price list values should now be updated in line with the job’s price list/rate card
Once you are happy with your price quote, you can follow your agency’s approval process
REFRESHING SCHEDULE DATA
If you have a schedule/timeline on the job and have assigned resources, you will also need to update the values according to the new/updated price list.
In the jobs module > jobs list > select the job that needs updating
Go to the task sub menu > tasks tab
Click the ‘update task data’ icon > select ‘update prices to match current job price list’
This can also be done via the Grid view if that is your preference.
Sometimes the values can take a while to refresh.
REFRESHING TIME ENTRY DATA
If there are time entries on your job that have been registered with the wrong values, you will need to update these as well.
Go to the jobs module > jobs list
Select the job that needs updating > click the costs sub menu
Go to the hours tab > and open the hamburger menu
