Topic
The Quote Templates feature gives you a quick and easy way to create Quotes of similar type without the need to create them from scratch every time.
A templated quote can hold key information like;
- Description: Info on the quote.
- Price List Items: Allows you to include commonly used items.
- Billing rates: Time/labour costs.
- Kits: Allows you to include bundles.
- Miscellaneous Items: You can also include any other item you want that you regularly charge for.
- Sections: Great for breaking down your work.
- Document attachments: Useful for attachment Terms and Conditions or other documents you always need for the job.
Note: When you create a quote from a template, the amounts on the quote will update to match whatever pricing level and tax you are using for that customer.
