# Line Items & Options

Not all work fits neatly into dimension-based rates. Use line items for fixed-price or custom-scoped work, options for upsells and alternate scope, and additional work for approved changes after acceptance.

## In This Section

* [Add & Edit Line Items](/support/estimating/line-items-and-options/how-to-add-and-edit-a-line-item.md) — Add saved or custom line items with pricing, materials, hours, photos, notes, and visibility controls
* [Working With Options](/support/estimating/line-items-and-options/working-with-options.md) — Move areas or line items into a separate options section for upsells and alternate scope
* [Customer Accepted Options](/support/estimating/line-items-and-options/customer-accepted-options.md) — Let customers add optional items themselves before they accept the estimate
