Fitting charges are added to a quote in a similar way to adding standard products. Fitting charges can be used for labour, electrics, plumbing, painting and all kinds of trades.
Before adding fitting see how to setup the fitting calculator. Different trades can be used with different fitting groups.
(As an alternative to the fitting calculator you can create special product codes in My Catalogue if your fitting structure is more applicable to this).
