When you select any non-padlocked Quote(s), or Purchase order(s), or Bill(s) from these sub-tabs, you can apply a percentage or dollar value markup, which will add/or replace a markup percentage or dollar value to each line in that financial document.  

A numerical or percentage value will add a markup percentage, while a dollar value (i.e. $10) will add a $10 markup to the total value of that line.
