Free Quoting Software should make the scope, inclusions, exclusions, GST treatment, ABN or business details, payment terms, and acceptance path clear. ATT helps Australian painters move from template-style quoting into live quote, job, schedule, and accounting workflow.

Start with a cleaner structure before quoting larger work.
Standardise scope and terms across estimators and admin.
Use ATT when templates need to become jobs and invoices.
| Field | Purpose | ATT workflow |
|---|---|---|
| Customer and site | Identifies who and where the work is for | Client and job records |
| Scope and exclusions | Avoids disputes and missed work | Quote sections and notes |
| GST treatment | Clarifies Australian tax totals | 10% GST market default |
| Payment terms | Sets expectations before work starts | Quote and invoice workflow |
| Acceptance | Turns the document into scheduled work | Quote-to-job handover |
Start with customer details, site address, scope, preparation, products, labour, materials, exclusions, GST treatment, payment terms, validity period, and acceptance instructions. Keep it specific enough that the job can be handed to a crew without reinterpreting the quote.
Use AUD amounts, clear GST wording, ABN or business details where needed, Australian phone/address formatting, and plain acceptance terms. For tax invoice-style documents, confirm the required details with your accountant.
A static template is fine for getting started. Once quotes need follow-up, job handover, scheduling, contractors, and accounting invoices, ATT is the more practical workflow.

Use ATT to quote faster, win more work, and run your painter business.
A practical ATT workflow starts when a lead arrives, captures site notes and measurements, builds the quote with Mate, follows up with the customer, converts accepted work into a job, schedules staff or subcontractors, records timesheets and supplier costs, sends progress invoices, and syncs the accounting handoff to Xero.
ATT is built around the day-to-day needs of Australian painting and decorating businesses rather than a generic trade workflow.
Start with the customer details, site address, surfaces, measurements, prep notes, paint system, labour allowance, materials, access, exclusions, GST, and payment stages. Once the customer accepts, ATT can turn the same quote into a scheduled job with contractor updates, costs, progress invoices, and the accounting handoff.
Yes, but make sure business details, GST treatment, scope, and payment terms are correct for your business.
ATT can replace static templates when you want quotes to become jobs, schedules, and accounting invoices.
It should clearly state whether amounts include or exclude GST and show totals consistently.
ATT keeps the customer, scope, quote, job, schedule, costs, invoices, and accounting handoff connected so the same information does not need to be rebuilt in separate tools.
Include scope, measurements, prep, paint system, labour, materials, access, exclusions, GST, margin, payment stages, and acceptance terms.
