A service provider can offer proposed rates for each trade serviced. You can use this information, in combination with the quality of services offered by the provider, to help determine the provider’s ranking. By doing so, you can identify a reliable pool of service providers per trade. This helps you assign work orders to the best available service providers.

Within each provider’s profile, you can manage the proposed rates.
