WorkMate's Services & Labour options allows you to add stand-alone services and product-related labour to your work orders. Whether you want to sell a time-based service, or a service that has a fixed price, WorkMate has you covered.
1. Navigate to WorkMate Settings
In Shopify, go to Shopify Admin.
Navigate to the Services & Labour section.
2. Create a Service
Click the Create Service button.
Example: Car Washing, SKU: 1234, Price: $150
There are two types of services: Fixed Price Services and Dynamic Price Services.
Fixed Price Services: These are for services with a set cost, like a tire change or a routine computer repair.
Dynamic Price Services: This is for services where pricing varies, such as diagnostics that charge based on hours worked.
Here you can add a Description to your service.
Then set your Price and click Save.
Once successfully saved, you'll see your new service under the Services section:
3. Add a Service to a Work Order
To add a service to a work order, access the Work Orders module.
Create a new work order.
For more information on how to create a work order, click here: Work Orders
Click the Add service button.
A pop-up menu will open and display all the services you have created.
Example: Car Washing
Click on the service you'd like to add to your work order.
Once you click on the service, you will be able to add additional details such as choosing general labour, assigning an employee, and service custom fields.
After you're finished configuring the details, click Save.
The Service is now added to your Work Order.
Tip: This Labour feature is great if you have a product that will always be sold with an associated labour. For example, selling a tire that always comes with the labour of installation.
1. Create Labour
Scroll down and navigate to the Labour section.
Click the Create Labour button
There are 2 Labour Type pricing options: Fixed Price and Hourly
Example: Pants Hemming, Fixed Price
After entering all required details, click Save.
2. Add the labour to the associated product
Access your Shopify Admin and click the Products section.
Add a new product, or select a pre-existing product that you'd like to add labour to.
Example: Dress Pants Product
Scroll down and access the Variant metafields app block.
Click the Default Charges field.
Click the Select entries button.
Here you will be able to associate labour to your product.
You can choose between an Hourly labour charge or a Fixed price labour charge.
Example: Pants Hemming, Fixed Price
Click Save.
3. Verify the labour
After saving the labour to the product, you will be able to see the labour on the product when creating a work order.
The product will now say "Has Additional Labour", and the price will reflect the product and labour price.
Example: Dress Pants; Product price = $70, Labour price = $35, Total = $105
If you click on the product, you will be able to see a detailed view of the labour as well.
