When to use a change order
Use change orders when the customer requests changes after a job has been approved: adding a print location, changing the quantity, upgrading the garment, or any other scope change that affects the price.
Creating a change order
- 1Open the job and click "Change Order" in the top toolbar.
- 2Add new line items or adjust existing ones.
- 3Add a note explaining what changed and why.
- 4Send the updated quote to the customer for approval.
Approval tracking
Change orders are tracked in the job's history with a timestamp and the user who created them. The customer sees the updated total in their portal and can approve or discuss the change via the job thread.
