What you’ll do
Add every product you haul or sell — aggregate, sand, asphalt mixes, fill — grouped under the Material Types your business already uses.Before you start
- A materials export from your accounting system: name, SKU, default UoM, and accounting code.
- A list of the Material Types you group products under (e.g. Aggregate, Asphalt, Fill).
- Confirm UoM with billing — tons, cubic yards, loads. Materials and equipment must use the same UoM for ticket math to work.
