  • The costing structure for the quotation consists of one or more projects, this allows for more accurate structured costing.
  • The costing for each project is based on costing categories (Materials, parts, labour, travel, etc).
  • Expected materials, parts, labour, etc needed for the projects are added under the appropriate costing category.
  • The cost price used when adding the item is based on Pastels average cost, last cost, a specified cost price or the actual cost of the item. Projects also have provision to add costs by using a bill of material.
