Quotes

The Quoting module allows the creation of quotes and invoices that can be converted to PDF format for sending.

Quotes are created against CRM Records.
To create a new Quote select the Quotes option in the left-hand menu, then click the New icon () in the top left corner.

This will launch the Manage Quote window.

Once the Manage Quote window has launched enter a name for the Quote and click Save. You will now be able to add new items by clicking the Add New Item button on the right side.
Enter the details of the line item. Once added the items will be listed in the Manage Quote window. A Status for the Quote can also be set for Reporting purposes and also the Type can be set to either Quote or Invoice.

Under the Shipping tab you can specify the To and From addresses to be added to the Quote. There are options to populate a preset Default Address for the From address, and to use the contacts CRM address for the To address.

The Preview tab will show a preview of the Quote that will be generated into a PDF.
NOTE: The preview will only display if a Template has been specified in the Preview Settings and the Quote saved.

The Preview Settings tab allows the template and fields to be entered. The Quote uses a versaSRS Update Template to specify the formatting of the Quote. The fields correspond to Tags that will be replaced when the Update Template is loaded. Defaults can also be set by clicking the Set Defaults button.
