Project vs. Analysis Costs

Q: How do we get to invoice properly if we charge more for all tests individually? For instance, our water package includes over 10 individual tests. How do we set the price for the whole package as right now it appears to be summing up the individual tests. We charge more for individual tests than if they are in packages due to sample handling.

A: Assign the costs you charge for an individual test in the analysis setup screen. When you charge a different cost for analyses performed as a group such as your water package, first add an auto-complete internal data cost “analyte” with the appropriate cost for the group. Next, add the cost analyte to either a requirement or a project along with the individual analyses, but set the individual analysis costs to zero using the Cost tab of either the project or the requirement setup screen.
