You can **track client selections for kitchens, bathrooms, and flooring** by organizing selections by room, recording the allowance for each item, comparing the chosen option against that allowance and approving the final choice before ordering.

In **Jestor**, selections are grouped by room and linked to the project budget, so upgrades are priced before they are ordered.

## Why do selections cause budget surprises?

Kitchens, bathrooms and flooring involve many choices: cabinets, countertops, tiles, fixtures, finishes. Each has a price range.

When clients choose above the allowance without seeing the difference, the final invoice becomes a dispute.

Tracking dozens of choices in messages is impossible.

## What problems does selection tracking solve?

- Upgrades chosen without seeing the cost
- Disputes about allowances
- Missing selections delaying orders
- Choices changed without records
- No room-by-room view for the client

## How do I track selections in Jestor?

1. **Create a selections table** grouped by room: kitchen, bathroom, flooring.
2. **Record the allowance** for each item.
3. **Add the chosen option** with price.
4. **Calculate the difference** from the allowance with formula fields.
5. **Record client approval** and send approved items to purchasing.

| Room     | Typical selections              |
| -------- | ------------------------------- |
| Kitchen  | Cabinets, countertops, fixtures |
| Bathroom | Tiles, vanity, fixtures         |
| Flooring | Material, color, finish         |

## How do allowances help clients decide?

Showing the allowance and the difference for each option makes the budget impact clear.

Clients can balance upgrades in one room with savings in another.

## Why use Jestor for client selections?

- **Room-based lists**: every selection organized by area.
- **Allowance formulas**: differences calculated automatically.
- **Approvals recorded**: choices documented before ordering.
- **Purchasing link**: approved items create purchase requests.

## What else helps you track client selections for kitchens, bathrooms, and flooring?

- A selection summary at the end of the process gives the client and the team the same reference for what will be installed.
- Lead times differ by item. Custom cabinets or imported tiles may take weeks to arrive, so their selection deadlines must come earlier than those of standard items.
- Linking deadlines to lead times keeps the whole schedule safe.

This is how you track client selections for kitchens, bathrooms, and flooring without budget surprises.
