Commercial & industrial hazardous waste service

Quote it once. The invoice prices from the same record.

C&I has its own Today, its own clients, its own quotes and its own route board — on the same clients, wastes, profiles and bills as every other line.

One chain, five records.

Each record hands off to the next. A price lives in one place and came from one place.

Two ways a price gets set, and they are different things.

A client may be quoted job by job and never have a rate card; that's a normal way to run an account, not a gap.

Rate card

What it is
A standing price list on the client — a waste, how it bills, the number.
When
An account you serve on known terms, pickup after pickup.
Where the price lives
On the client, resolved per stream: by the container or by the pound.

Quote

What it is
One offer for one piece of work: the wastes it prices plus the fixed charges that job carries.
When
An account you're courting, or a request that arrived from the portal.
Where the price lives
On the quote. The standing agreement points at it; the invoice prices from it.

The agreement carries no prices of its own.

Monthly on the third Friday, the next six pickups it generates, a container plan per waste — and the quote that set the prices.

A standing agreement: monthly on the third Friday, the next six pickups it generates, and the container plan per waste. Prices come from the quote it points at. From the Mercovi demo workspace. Names are fictional.

A route board plans the trucks. The clients, wastes, profiles and bills are the same records your HHW and lab pack work already uses.

Your wastes, containers, facilities, management methods, billing methods and limits are yours to edit. No developer ticket to add a facility.

Asked about pricing.

What is the difference between a rate card and a quote?

A rate card is a standing price list on the client: a waste, how it bills, the number. A quote is one offer for one piece of work — the wastes it prices plus the fixed charges that job carries. An account may run on quotes alone and never have a rate card.

Can a quote be sent with an uncharacterized waste on it?

No. A line naming a waste with no material profile on file cannot be sent, because the designated facility has nothing to approve. The quote screen says so in words. The client can fill in the profile from the portal, or the contractor can.

How does a standing agreement set its prices?

It doesn't. The agreement holds the schedule — frequency, day rule, container plan per waste — and points at the quote that set the prices. That is why a price lives in one place and came from one place.

How is a pickup priced?

Collection is one row per container that comes off the site: count, scale weight and weight ticket number. Completing the pickup prices it, from the quote or rate card that governs that client, on the basis each stream bills on.
