How eco fees are applied

When a part or labor is added to an order, the eco fee is resolved in this order — from most specific to most general.

01

Product or Labor

The fee set on this specific item — highest priority.

02

Category

Falls back to the part category or job category default.

03

Global

Uses the shop-wide default from your settings.
