π₯ Role Planning
After a few weeks of running this functionality in BETA, we're now turning it on for everyone on Fixed-price plans! In short, you can use team member roles to price your jobs as you would when using team members. This will help to get that quote out before you know exactly who might be working on the job. Once your quote is approved, you can then easily assign those roles to your available team from within the job page or team schedule.
For more information about the functionality, head to its dedicated knowledge base article. Happy days!
