Here you can enter a discount percentage for the Product. By default, this discount field changes the price that is displayed on Proposal reports and not discount amount is displayed. There is a Report Setting that allows you to display the discounted amount in the Project Summary section of the Proposal.

Net Unit Price

This field will show the unit price after the discount is applied.

Non-Billable

Checking this option will zero out the Unit Price of the Product within the Project file, but not the Unit Cost. It also zeroes out any labor being charged for the Product, but not the cost of the Labor. Any labor hours associated with the Product are maintained. This option is useful for Products that you are providing but not charging your client for. Because these items retain their cost values, they do factor into your overall project margin/profit.

Example: A Product has the following: Unit Cost = $50 and Unit Price = $100. It has one hour of labor with a cost of $75/hour and a price of $150/hour. You add this to a project and it is marked as Non-Billable. Nothing will be charged to your client but the Project will incur a cost of $125 ($50 from the Product + $75 from the Labor associated with the Product) and this cost will affect the Project's margin/profit. If you do not want to incur a cost for the Product you can manually zero this field out within the Project. If you do not want incur a cost for the labor you can zero out the hours for the Product within the Project.

Exclude in Calculated Items

Checking this option will exclude the product's pricing from being used in Calculated Products, Labor Items, Allowances, Miscellaneous Items, and on Service Plans.
