Percentage-Based Charge
Follow
This article explains the percentage-based charging feature and how to set it up.
In this article:
Overview
The percentage-based charge is a feature to have the option to customize the charge, which would be able to determine the percentage of the work order value. The percentage-based charge can convert the price item into a percentage (%). It can only be used for quantity and hourly computations.
Calculation Logic
Below is the logic of how the percentage-based calculations are calculating the selected price item:
- The percentage will be taken from the summary of all charges not marked as "Calculate As %".
- The subtotal of charges (charge price after discount applied) and before taxes will be calculated.
- The percentage of the charge will be calculated against this item.
- The final value will be rounded into 2 decimals.
- Subsequent tax(es) (if applicable, will be added).
- If there are multiple % items assigned to the charge list, each will be calculated independently.
- Discount applied to the order as a whole will be ignored in the calculation of those items.

- Go to the Price List section.
- Select the item you need to edit. Tick the checkbox on the left side of the table.
