This field is not available with this Price Basis option, because the system calculates the net price per unit automatically. See Price Basis.

In each case, the system displays the newly calculated net price and net price per unit in the Net Price and Net Price/Unit fields as soon as you exit both this and the Price Basis field to the left.

Note:  The Extended Cost and Cost/Unit fields do not change.

TIP: Once you are done using this and Price Basis field to the left to let the worksheet calculate the optimal value for the net price, you can copy the value from the Net Price/Unit field to the Unit Price field in the header, and then save the form. This causes the system to use the new value on the Estimate Job Orders and Estimate Lines forms.
