Estimation Tip: NTAR
When estimating with NTAR in iBodyShop, if you forget to set the correct paint type before the job is authorised, it will not allow you to change it on the details page once it's authorised.
However:
Go into the paint lines on the estimate and select the small (i) icon. From there, you can change the paint type on each of the paint lines, this will also adjust general allowances along with it.
A handy fix that can save you from manually recalculating later.
