Step 2: Review the Costing and Project Information

If you click on the Cost Tab, you will see that an invoice draft has already been created and this is why the cost already appears in the order.

Note: Jobs can be created or even configured to be automatically proposed or assigned via the new order form. If the Jobs are just created, you will need to assign them to a supplier manually and manage the actual workflow of the project.
