The price book
Written By Ignacio
Last updated 2 days ago
The price book is the catalogue behind every job, estimate and invoice. Flyra calls it "your canonical service and pricing catalog for estimates, invoices, and jobs", which is exactly right: type an item name anywhere in the app and it pulls from here.
It's Settings > Price Book.

1. Categories
Categories group what you sell. Each shows its item count and average price on the header, for example "Window Cleaning, 1 items, Avg $189.00".
Keep them broad. "Window Cleaning", "Pressure Washing", "Gutters". Twenty categories with one item each is a list, not a structure.

2. Add Item
Items are the things you actually sell. The panel takes:
- Name, what the customer reads
- Description, optional detail that prints under it, with AI Write to draft one
- Quantity, the default when added, usually 1
- Price ($), your standard price
- a category dropdown and a photo upload
Items appear in a table with Item, Description, Qty, Price, Total and Actions.

3. Search
Searches categories, line items and checklist templates at once.

4. New Category

Checklist templates
The second section on this page, "reusable technician tasks by template". Covered in the Jobs & Scheduling collection, because they attach to jobs rather than to prices.

How prices flow through the app
Set a price here and it becomes the default everywhere. On a job, estimate or invoice you can change it for that document without touching the price book, so the catalogue stays your standard and individual work can flex.
That's the right way round. Editing the price book because one customer negotiated is how your pricing quietly erodes.
Tips and gotchas
- Fill this in before quoting. It's the difference between a ten-second estimate and a five-minute one.
- Per-document price changes don't affect the catalogue. Change freely on the job.
- Descriptions prevent scope arguments. Spell out what's included.
- Average price on the category header is a quick sanity check that nothing was typed with a missing zero.
