Create Estimate

The form looks very similar to an invoice, except that it also has a column for the estimated cost.  The advantage to completing this column and the appropriate markup is complete estimate versus actual reports for cost as well as income for management purposes.  The cost and markup percentage does not show on the printed copy for the customer.  However, it is possible to customize the estimate template to include a line for the customer to sign for acceptance of the estimate.
