Charging fixed prices

Charge projects or phases on a fixed price basis, regardless of services rendered

How charging fixed prices creates benefits

The charged fixed price allows you to specify a fixed fixed amount for a project or a project phase, regardless of the real hours such as services, expenses or outlays.

  • Provide services with an amount of your choice – this will be shown invoiced as a lump sum fixed amount on the invoice.
  • Charging fixed prices promotes budget management and planning security for projects.
  • If the fixed amount is removed, Vertec will automatically calculate the total of the services included.

How charging fixed prices works

In Vertec, you can manually enter fixed amount lump sum for a project or a project phase under Services > Billedcharge This amount will then be displayed as a lump sum on fixed amount invoice shown with the note “Lump sum”Fixed amount If you remove it, the actual effort will be calculated again from hours entered servicesservices

Economic benefits

Charging fixed prices provides clarity for both you as a provider and your customers about the amounts to be invoiced. It facilitates budget control and avoids discussions about variable volumes of service – especially in clearly defined phases.

How it works in detail
  • For services, enter a fixed amount under “Charged”.
  • This amount will appear on the invoice in green with the reference “fixed amount”.
  • As soon as you delete the fixed amount, the normal calculation takes effect again by adding all defined services, expenses and outlays.
