Set your prices
Build the price book that quotes, contracts, and invoices all draw from, including tiers and renewal increases.
Updated August 30, 2026
Pricing is set per work type, not once for the whole company. A routine maintenance visit and an equipment repair are priced on completely different logic, so OpsVara keeps them separate.
Open Sales and BillingPricing and pick a work type. You will see three things to fill in.
Tier setup
Five tiers, T1 through T5, that you name and rate yourself. Tiers are how you price the same service differently by size or difficulty — a small residential property versus a large one — without creating a separate service for each.
Name them something your office staff will recognize on a quote. "Small / Medium / Large" beats "T1 / T2 / T3". The tier marked with an asterisk is the default for any site that does not have its own tier.
Service prices
Each service you offer gets a row. Quotes and templates inherit these prices.
The setting that does most of the work on each row is Contract type:
- Included — covered by the base contract rate, with no separate invoice line.
- Add-on — a separate line when the crew confirms it at sign-off.
You can also seed the row into new contracts, track whether it was completed each visit, and optionally cap how many times it may bill on one contract. When to invoice (per visit, monthly, once) is set later on the quote or contract, not on this page.
Included versus add-on is easy to get wrong
An add-on billed on a weekly plan shows up every time the crew confirms it. The same work marked Included never appears as its own invoice line. Check this on every extra before you send your first quote.
Renewal pricing
A percentage applied when you renew an ongoing plan. When it is set, renewal quotes pre-fill from the prior contract totals plus this increase, so January price changes stop being a spreadsheet exercise.
What to do next
With prices in place, add a customer and a site so you can send a quote. If you run a pool business, the monthly plan plus chemicals playbook walks the whole chain end to end.
