Keep your sell price above the sub's cost

The two prices are independent on purpose.

Steps

1. Your unit price (the bid, or a billed-price override) is what the owner pays you. Set it on the line item.
2. The sub's rate is what you pay the sub. Set it on the sub's item assignment.
3. Changing one never changes the other, so the margin on an item is simply your price minus the sub's rate, times the quantity placed.

Good to know

• When a sub's pay app comes in at a rate that is not what you agreed, the import shows the rate it read next to yours — fix the assignment rate rather than the invoice.
