Window Components – Labor Operation button descriptions

Repair	If the selected part has a default labor operation of RR (Remove/Replace), use this button to add the part as a repair line with an RP (Repair) labor operation instead.
R&I	Remove/Install If the selected part has a default labor operation of RR (Remove/Replace), use this button to add the part as a repair line with an RI (Remove/Install) labor operation instead.
Blend	If the selected part has a refinish headnote, use this button to add the headnote as a blend item. When the repair line is added, the cursor defaults to the Labor Unit field, allowing you to enter a modified labor time for the blend operation.
Manual Refinish	This button is available if the selected part (not the headnote) is already in the estimate as a parent repair line and is eligible for manual refinish. In this case, you can add a refinish child line by clicking the Manual Refinish button (versus clicking the Add Refinish Labor Line command on the Edit menu). If an automatic RO line is already attached to the repair line, the Manual Refinish line overrides it.
PDR	Use this button to display the PDR Calculator which allows you calculate the cost of a paintless repair procedure based on information you enter about dent size, location, and quantity for the selected part. This button is available when: The PDR value-added option is active and the PDR provider and database are selected on the Labor/Tax Rates tab of the profile. The selected part is on the CEG tab. The selected part is eligible for paintless dent repair (for example, a fender or passenger door).
Manual Entry	Use this button to add a special/manual entry repair line from either the CEG, ATG, or Reference Sheet tab.
