Track, manage, and recognize job revenue—whether you’re importing it manually or building estimates directly in Lever360.
📌 Overview
The Estimates & Revenues section (within the Billing tab on a job) is where your team tracks revenue, either from estimates built within Lever360 or from third-party systems like Xactimate or Symbility.
This is also what determines the sale amount for your job and provides a financial handoff between production and accounting. Invoices and payments are streamed from the revenue entries created here.

💡 Status Management
You can set each revenue or estimate to one of the following statuses:
Status | What It Means |
Estimating | In progress of drafting, not finalized |
Pending | Submitted or under review, pending next steps |
Contracted | Approved and recognized as the sale amount, ready for invoice |
Archived | Used for historical reference incase of major estimate revision |
