--- CLIP 2: Optional Line items ---

============================================================

[00:03:20]

we can also do optional line items

[00:03:24]

So maybe the demo and prep will be optional or maybe we're gonna add one more line item

[00:03:29]

Let's say we're gonna add some mulch installation

[00:03:33]

And

[00:03:35]

Let's say that it's a thousand square feet of mulch at three inches ten yards. Here's everything we got

[00:03:41]

Let's say this mulch is optional, right?

[00:03:43]

So the cut we want the customer to be able to pick if they want this mulch or not

[00:03:47]

We just go to the three dots click make optional as you can see

[00:03:52]

This toggle is added here when we go back to the proposal here

[00:03:56]

You're gonna see that the client is able to select whether they want that or not

[00:04:00]

So if we scroll down to the proposal

[00:04:04]

You can see mulch has been added here and it's optional

[00:04:07]

So the client is able to click this toggle to select it or unselect it

[00:04:13]

However, you have it saved when you send it out is how the client will receive it

[00:04:18]

this is going to update the total and the payment terms in real time and

[00:04:24]

We have one other feature you can do for selections as well

[00:04:28]

Selections is really cool because essentially any time a customer asks you to send multiple proposals for an item

[00:04:36]

For example, let's say a client's a hey, can you give me a price of doing mulch versus doing rock?

[00:04:41]

I want to see what the difference is

[00:04:43]

Typically, you'd have to send out two separate proposals

[00:04:46]

Now is that bit we've built a tool where you can send that all within one proposal

[00:04:51]

I'm going to show you right now. The same thing can work for any service

[00:04:55]

Selecting different types of materials

[00:04:57]

different types of pavers

[00:04:59]

Doing concrete verse pavers doing whatever the scenario would be for your company where they're going to ask you for two proposals

[00:05:06]

You can use this feature right here to solve that and not have to send them to separate

[00:05:12]

Proposals separate documents. Alright, so the mulch maybe instead of just being optional

[00:05:18]

They want to be able to pick between mulch versus rock. Alright, so I'm gonna go to three dots

[00:05:23]

I'm gonna remove the optional and

[00:05:26]

Now when we click the three dots, you'll see there's a new option for setup selection options, right?

[00:05:31]

so you're just gonna click on that and

[00:05:34]

You can choose. What do you want to what do you want the client to be able to pick between I

[00:05:39]

Could duplicate this mulch and I could change the type of the mulch so they can pick between different options

[00:05:44]

That's what you would do when you're just wanting to pick between the different material type within the same item

[00:05:51]

In this case, I want them to be able to pick between mulch and between rock so I'm gonna scroll down

[00:05:56]

I'm gonna select the rock install

[00:05:58]

I'm gonna click Save and now it's gonna give me these two options

[00:06:03]

You have a few settings here call outs

[00:06:06]

Photos on stuff like that. If you try to save here, it's gonna give you an error message

[00:06:11]

Please select one of the options. You just have to click this selected button here to select one of these and then save

[00:06:19]

What this does is it adds this little icon here and when we expand this you can see that there's mulch and rock side-by-side

[00:06:26]

Now we already put in the mulch a thousand square feet at three inches. So now we just need to replicate that in the rock

[00:06:34]

thousand square feet at three inches, but choose the type of rock and

[00:06:39]

We are ready to go. So now when we come back to this proposal

[00:06:45]

As you can see when we scroll down

[00:06:48]

The client will now have the option to pick

[00:06:51]

Which which item they want to go with if you want to hide these photos you can do that as well if you want to

[00:06:56]

Change these photos just hover over this right here

[00:06:59]

Click the pencil edit it switch it to the next one same thing if you want to adjust these photos
