Default Repairs

What can you do with this?

• Manage repairs in bulk — create a master repair list for an entire category (e.g., all smartphones) instead of editing each model one by one.
• Keep pricing consistent — set a baseline price for every repair so all models in a category start with the same rates.
• Organize repairs into groups — use repair categories like "Screen Repairs" or "Battery Repairs" to keep your repair list clean and easy to browse.
• Offer quality options — add sub-repairs like "Original", "OEM", or "Refurbished" under a single repair so customers can pick the option that fits their budget.
• Override when needed — fine-tune individual model prices on the Models & Repairs page without losing your defaults.
