Customer-supplied materials

How to quote parts whose material is supplied by your customer

Setting materials as customer-supplied

On the part's card you may set the part to be from customer supplied material, to do this, simply slide the "Customer supplied material" option to the right; it will turn orange.

Customer supplied material, 'Off'

Customer supplied material, 'On'

Selecting a part to be calculated using the customer-supplied material will change how the price is calculated for the parts, rather than using the material price for the parts we would calculate the price based on a percentage of the material cost as a handling fee which is determined in your Materials page, as highlighted below.

Customer-supplied setting in Materials page.

The price that would be charged for a sheet of material supplied by you is:

SheetSellPrice=SheetCostPrice∗(1+AppliedMarkup)

Example: A full sheet that costs $100 per sheet and has a 35% applied markup would be sold for $135.

The price that would be charged for a sheet of material supplied by your customer is:

SheetHandlingFee=SheetCostPrice∗HandlingFeePercentage

Example: A material group has a 15% handling fee on all sheets. If a customer supplies a sheet of material for their parts and you have that sheet as costing $100 per sheet, a handling fee of $15 will apply per sheet of material used in supplying their quoted parts.
