Apply a Vertical Pack

Add a trade pack to an existing workspace mid-flight. Idempotent and safe.

Vertical packs are pre-built bundles of custom fields, job templates, services, and checklists tuned to a trade. Thirteen ship today. The matching pack applies at signup when you pick a Trade, and you can apply another any time from this page.

Why packs exist

Without a pack, a fresh workspace has an empty Price Book, no job templates, and generic fields. You can build all of it by hand, but most shops don't, and end up running Manuall under-configured for months. With a pack, in under a minute your workspace looks like a real shop has been using it for a year.

Applying a pack

  1. Settings -> Vertical Packs.
  2. Each pack shows a card with what's inside and a current-counts row for what you already have.
  3. Click Apply Pack.
  4. Confirm. The pack's content is added.

Idempotent: apply more than once

Re-applying a pack only adds what's missing.

If you've customized a service the pack also ships, the pack skips that item on re-apply. Your customizations stay.

Mixing packs

Plenty of shops are multi-trade (HVAC that also does plumbing, cleaning that also does carpet). Apply both: Settings -> Vertical Packs -> Apply HVAC, then Apply Plumbing on the same page. Both packs' fields, templates, services, and checklists land in your workspace. Trim what you don't use from Settings.

Pricing inside packs

Every pack price is a 2025 U.S. national-average estimate, tagged [REVIEW PRICING].

Your real prices depend on region, demand, brand mix, and channel. Before your first estimate, walk the Price Book and set every service; clear the [REVIEW PRICING] note as you go.

Removing a pack

To remove pack content, delete the items from Settings -> Services / Custom Fields / Job Templates / Checklists. They're soft-deleted, so Trash can bring them back if you change your mind.

Want a pack that isn't here?

If your trade isn't in the ten, talk to your account rep. New packs are added by the Manuall team and reach your workspace on the next release.
