Before you start
Anyone who can open Settings can change this page. It is kept per move type (pick it at the top). Nothing is saved until you press Save.
The fields (Packing Setting)
- Default Estimate Type — Flat Rate, Binding or Non-Binding.
- Charge for travel time — on, travel time is charged on packing jobs.
- Please select way for calculating travel time — shown while travel is charged: Way 1 to Way 4, as on Loading.
A changed field shows a gold changed tag; press it to put that field back. Copy to other move types fills the others (it asks first) and waits for Save.
What packing costs when it's added to a move is set on Packing calculator.
