Offering Not Appearing in Estimates? Status and Visibility Check
Fix missing offerings in your estimates by checking status settings and visibility options in Local Business Pro.
Quick Answer: If an offering isn't appearing in estimates, it's likely deactivated. Go to AI Logic > Offerings, find the service, and check that its status is set to 'Active'.
The Problem
When creating an estimate, you can't find a service you know exists in your system. This usually means the offering has been deactivated or there's a filter hiding it.
Step-by-Step Solution
- Navigate to AI Logic > Offerings
- Clear any active filters (Type, Status, Search)
- Set the Status filter to show 'All' or 'Deactivated'
- Find your offering in the list
- Click View to open the offering
- Check the Status field - change to 'Active' if deactivated
- Click Save to apply changes
- Return to your estimate - the offering should now appear
Common Causes
- Deactivated status: Someone turned off the offering (intentionally or accidentally)
- Wrong type filter: You're looking for a Service but it's categorized as a Product
- Search typo: The search is filtering out the offering due to a misspelling
- Recently created: The page may need to be refreshed to show new offerings
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: I reactivated the offering but it still doesn't show. What now?
A: Try refreshing the page or logging out and back in. The change should be immediate.
Q: Can I have the same offering in multiple categories?
A: Each offering exists once. Use clear naming to organize them (e.g., 'Residential AC Repair', 'Commercial AC Repair').
