Creating a Quote

To create a quote for a customer not currently on your Sellr Customer relationship manager (CRM), click 'Manage'>'Sales' and click on the 'Create a Quote' button.

You can now select the items for the quote.

Click on the basket item in the 'Action' field to add one item, or enter the quantity in the box next to the basket.

You can also enter a different per-item price in the 'special' field if required. In this way, you can quote customers with completely different prices than you normally sell at.

If you are quoting for an item which is not on the system, then click on the 'Custom Item' link.

Enter the name of the item in the 'custom item' field. Then the quantity, price and tax.

If the item is a physical tangible item, then ensure that tangible is set to 'Yes' then click on 'Add to Quote'
