Pricing in New Aurora is set using either a starting base price per watt that applies to all projects or a flat price, and then you can use adders and discounts to fine tune your pricing.
Please note that only account Administrators can make these changes.
General Pricing
Your starting cost could include any fixed amount that will always be added to every project and will be in addition to your base price per watt or flat price.
Your pricing method will control how the system cost is calculated across all of your projects.
- Selecting Price per watt will only give users the option to calculate the system cost using price per watt.
- Selecting Flat price will only give users the option to calculate the system cost by entering a flat price.
- Selecting Price per watt or flat price will give users the option to choose between both pricing methods when calculating the system cost. Your default pricing method determines what will be used initially.
Your base price per watt is the price that will apply to all projects that you create (only if Price per watt is set as the default pricing method) but can be overridden on a project-by-project basis.
Turn the toggles on/off to adjust how you wish to display pricing and Bill Overview information in Sales Mode.

Adders & Discounts
Adders and Discounts can be used to fine tune your pricing on a project-by-project basis and are configured at a global level in the Database. Please note that you will always need to manually select adders and discounts from the Financing page in Sales Mode on a project by project basis.
