Once your client signs off on the estimate, you can designate the estimate a master estimate. This means e·silentpartner is tracking this estimate vs. actual hours, out of pocket expenses and any invoices on the job in real time.

From your Estimate, select Options > Approve to make this a master estimate for this job.

💡
Master estimates are client or internally approved estimates. You may have several revisions of an estimate but only one can be the master estimate.
💡
You can adjust the master estimate template by editing the original template and creating a new master estimate. Users cannot delete an estimate version once it has been approved even if another version is subsequently approved.
