Quote Lifecycle

There are four states that a quote can be in.

Editing - The default state when creating a quote where you can enter the data and calculate the cost. All other topics in this section apply when the quote is in editing state.

Posted - This stores the data in the quote so it can't be changed, this is what you would do when sending it to a customer.

Won / Converted to Workorder -When a quote is won, its contents are copied into a new workorder. The quote is marked as being won. You can however win a quote multiple times, creating multiple workorders.

Lost / Cancelled, if you lose the quote then you have the option of requoting (generating a new quote of the same parts) or cancelling the quote, which stops it showing up when you search active quotes.

 

When searching quotes, Active Quotes is a filter which returns Editing and Posted Quotes,
