A signed quote is locked — that’s what protects you. But work changes. A client adds a room to the job, wants an extra fixture installed, or asks for something that wasn’t in the original scope. A change order lets you add that work and get it signed, without touching the original agreement at all.

​
How change orders work

A change order is its own small quote, linked back to the original. It only lists the new work — not everything from the original quote — and your client signs it separately. Once they do, the original quote stays exactly as it was, and the change order becomes part of the same job.

​
Creating a change order

1

Open the accepted quote

Go to Quotes and open the quote you want to add work to. Change orders can only be created on quotes the client has already signed.
2

Start the change order

Tap Create change order.
3

Add the new line items

Add only the additional work — the extra room, the added fixture, whatever changed. You don’t need to re-enter anything from the original quote.
4

Send it

Send the change order the same way you’d send a quote. Your client reviews and signs it on its own page, separate from the original.

​
What happens when your client signs

Signing a change order locks its terms the same way signing the original quote did — the amount, the scope, everything about it is frozen the moment they sign. It doesn’t touch the original quote. Both stand on their own, each with its own signed record. The change order’s total adds to the project’s overall value, and it uses the same job as the original — no second job gets created.

​
Billing for the extra work

Once a change order is signed, invoice it the same way you’d invoice any accepted quote — see Payment schedules if you want to split it into multiple payments, or Generate an invoice to bill it all at once.

​
What to do next

Head to an accepted quote and try Create change order, or read Locked terms to see why the original agreement never changes once your client signs it.
