Projects - Improved reports & data fields for estimating
When developing a quote via Projects, we can add in an estimated cost and then enter a margin to give an estimated expense. However we cannot then retrospectively see what the original supplier cost is and therefore profit expected. Neither does it offer a field to enter who the supplier is. The Project financial reports have a header to show 'estimated cost' but it does not populate this field. The only time a cost is shown is if it is entered as an actual expense.
Ideally we would want to see estimated costs, the margin added and the supplier during the quoting phase and then link it to a purchase order as well as an invoice once the quote is approved.
