In Chariot, estimate templates are a game-changer, streamlining the process of creating estimates and expediting delivery to customers. Instead of manually selecting charges from your list or tariff, leverage these pre-built templates for efficiency.

Creating Templates in Chariot

  1. Select Items and Configure Options: Add specific items to a move, configure options, and customize as needed.

  2. Save as Template: Click on the three dots, select "Save as Template," and give it a name.

  3. Reusable Efficiency: Once saved, the template is ready for use on other jobs, reducing manual effort significantly.

Example Templates

  1. Hourly, No Packing:

    • Automatically loads a synced charge for a truck, three movers, and a truck fee.

    • Two clicks to load, perfect for repetitive estimates with the same configuration.

  2. Interstate Base:

    • Features volume-based charges, a fuel fee, and includes free released value coverage.

    • Loaded with just a couple of clicks, saving time on manual data entry.

Customization and Flexibility
