Projects - when adding estimated tasks, enable there to be a quanitity section when selecting the fixed price items
When adding estimated tasks onto a project , add a quanitity section when selecting the fixed price items.
Some tasks for example like quoting for installation of boards per m2, we have the price per m2 set up as a code, so it would be useful to then be able to easily adjust the quanity required to get a revised sell / cost.
You currently have to calculate what the sell price would be and manually override the fixed charge. This however removes the visbility of how much quantity you want (unless you then edit the text) it also makes it more difficult if the quantity then changes as you have to do another calculation.
If you add estimated expense, it allows you to do the same sort of thing here and alter the quantity giving a revised estimated cost / sell, however you can't allocate timesheet entries against this.
