# Packages and line options

> Good, better, best packages, pick-one lines, optional add-ons, and lines the customer never sees.

Open the estimate and click **Edit**. The lines live under **Estimate & line items**. A normal estimate is one package. The badge says **Simple estimate**.

Open the options menu on that section. The heading is **Layout & advanced options**.

## Multiple packages

Turn on **Multiple packages**. The hint is **Good / Better / Best — customer picks one**. Each package is its own price. The customer picks one whole package. They do not mix lines from different packages.

Click **Add package**, name it (for example Standard and Premium), and put that tier’s lines in it. **Duplicate package** copies one. **Remove package** needs at least one package left. **Package totals** compares them. The line **Deposit and payment schedule use “…”** is the package those amounts are calculated from. Select another package total to change that.

**Customer can combine packages** lets them accept more than one. Those packages become one job and one invoice. Leave it off when they should pick a single tier. The workspace default is **Customer can approve** under [Estimate settings](/settings/estimates): **Only one option** or **Multiple options**. This estimate can override that.

A discount on the estimate is not applied when there is more than one package. Put the price you want on each package, or turn multiple packages off. Turning it off asks **Keep only the first package?** **Keep first package only** drops the other packages.

Tax still applies to every package.

## Line alternatives

**Line alternatives** is separate from packages. The hint is **Pick one — this or that line**. Use it when the customer should choose one of several lines inside a package, such as a bronze finish or a gold finish.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Turn it on">
    In **Layout & advanced options**, turn on **Line alternatives**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Start the group">
    On the first line, open **Pick one** and click **Start pick-one group**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add the other choice">
    Add the next line. Open **Pick one** on that line and click **Join pick-one group**. Linked lines show **Linked: customer picks one of … lines**.
  </Step>
</Steps>

The first row in the group is the default total in your preview. Drag rows to reorder. A group with only one line says to use **Pick one** on another line to join it. **Leave pick-one group** takes a line out.

Turning **Line alternatives** off asks **Remove all pick-one links?** **Remove links and simplify** makes every line a normal line, and the total includes all of them.

## Optional add-ons and internal costs

On a line, **Mark as optional add-on** keeps it out of the default total. The customer can opt in before they accept. **Remove optional add-on** puts it back in the price. Optional lines sit under **Optional add-ons**.

**Mark as internal cost** hides that line from the customer. It is never billed. Use it for materials or labor you need to track. **Show to customer** puts it back on the estimate.

After they accept, [convert the estimate](/help/estimate-accept). The job and the invoice use the package and the lines they chose.
