The Pricing > Pricing/Markups page of the Catalog/Drawing Properties is used for Linear Pricing of cabinet groups.

 

Tutorial

In this tutorial, we will create a job/drawing with cabinets, one for each cabinet group with a width of 1 metre.

 

Linear Rates at Cost

The following will apply Linear Rates, as shown in the image above, to each of the cabinet groups and see how cost is calculated/displayed.

Step 1

On the Pricing > Pricing/Markups page...

• Tick the Linear Metre checkbox
• Enter Linear Metre Rates as per the following...
  • Floor $50.00
  • Wall  $40.00
  • Tall   $60.00

 

Step 2

In Plan View or List View place/select one of each type of cabinet.

• for example a Standard Floor, Tall and Wall cabinet.

Change the Width of each to 1000mm i.e. one linear metre, as shown.

 

 

Step 3

The following image shows the above cabinets in List View.

• Notice that the pricing columns display a question mark (?)
• Click on the Calculate Prices button.

• The Cost Price of each cabinet will be calculated accordingly.

 

Linear Metre Pricing with Alternatives

The linear metre rate may, or may not, include costs for the kickboards, doors, or benchtops etc. Therefore, linear metre pricing can be used in conjunction with other alternatives.

For example the linear price may represent the carcass material and then you price hardware, doors, and the benchtop separately.

To achieve this you would need to nominate on the Pricing/Markups page:-

1. that you are using Linear Metre rates
2. and any other Categories i.e. Hardware, Doors, and Benchtops, etc which are based on the price of materials.
   • Doors - See topic Pricing Materials Advanced.
   • Benchtops - See topic Pricing Benchtop using Price Tables.
