Why is the user getting the message estimate exceeds summary when invoicing to VSB

How can Point of Sale override the estimated cost entered in a specification line in VSB

This can happen and depends on the priority level of the person invoicing the WIP and the setting of a system parameter in the Point of Sale module:

  • Select Point of Sale from the Master Menu
  • Select System maintenance from the Point of Sale menu
  • Select POS parameters
  • Select the Flags and Priorities radio button and then Labour tab



VS o/w cost priority will show the priority level needed to override an estimated cost in VSB.

If the person invoicing the WIP has a priority level in Point of Sale greater than the priority set in the parameter, they will be able to exceed the estimated costs entered on the vehicle line.
