What are Custom Attributes That Can Be Added to Line Items?
Great question! Whether you’re invoicing a customer or checking out your inventory list, sometimes a product or service that you offer will require a little bit more of an explanation.
For example, if you’re a locksmith, you could use this field to describe things like lock size, door handle finish, hours it took to install new locks, supplier, etc. Using custom attributes will allow you to itemize your service (i.e. a heavy-duty door handle) and add an extra column on your customer invoice that shows additional information.
See How:
1. Go to 'Settings'.
2. Under 'Job Settings' click on 'Items & Products'.
3. Select 'Add New'.
4. Fill out the items page and update any necessary info.
5. Select + 'Add item field'.
6. Add your description text for the item:
7. From the dropdown, select whether this item requires:
a. Text: Free text
b. Number: A number.
c. Quantity based number: A number that is multiplied by the quantity of the line item (i.e. work hours).
