How do I create vendor service templates?

Learn how to create reusable vendor service templates for common job services, including cost, price, vendor, and description details.

Vendor service templates let you save commonly used service details, such as vendor, cost, price, category, and description.

Use vendor service templates when your team frequently adds the same services to jobs, such as appraisals, cleaning, engraving, repairs, shipping, or miscellaneous services.

Create a vendor service template

  1. Open the Vendors tab.

  2. Open the vendor record you want to add the service template to.

  3. Select the Services tab.

  4. Select New.

  5. In the Service Type field, choose the type of service.

  6. Enter the service Title.

  7. Add the Unit Cost, Price, Category, and Description, if needed.

  8. Select a Store, if this service should only apply to one store.

  9. Select Is Default if this service should be selected automatically for that service type.

  10. Select Save.


View vendor service templates

You can view vendor service templates from the vendor record or from the Vendor Services tab.

The Vendor Services tab gives you a centralized list of all vendor service templates, so you can review, manage, and update them without opening each vendor record.
