This parameter is to enhance the changes to Non Labour Charges that were introduced to specify sub contract and sub contract exceptions.
The benefit of this allows consistent charging of non-labour items to the customer which will speed the invoice preparation time for the service adviser.
To view the parameters navigate to:
Workshop > Parameters > Non-Labour Charges
When you select the the Sub Contract tab you are presented with a screen that will display any sub contract calculations which have already been specified.
To add a new Sub Contract calculation click on the add button at the bottom right hand side of the screen.
Select the Non Labour Heading you want associated with the calculation., Then specify the percentage you want to increase the cost price by depending on the type of discount selected.
This enables a workshop leader to specify that they always want to charge a set percentage increase on cost price for a specific non labour charge. This helps ensure that people do not always need to remember specific discounts by non labour type thus reducing the opportunity to use the incorrect sales value.
Sub Contract Exceptions allows you specify which sales ledger accounts are exempt from the Sub Contract calculation.
