RFQ Management is a central hub to quickly access and manage quotes for clients. The list displays all quotes for all clients ordered by the most recently modified quote. From RFQ Management users can create new quotes or clone existing ones. To access this page you need the Sales > Leads > List<\/strong> permission, otherwise you will not see this section on the navigational sidebar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The list of visible quotes may differ for different users depending on the permissions and view restrictions. Quotes in Sales Folders with the status Will Not Complete<\/em> are inactive and hidden by default. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Searching the Quote List<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The search bar at the top of RFQ management lets you search the fields in the displayed table. Here you can search by Quote Number, Customer, Sales Folder, Quote Name, and Site Name. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A quote number is only generated for quotes that have been printed for the client. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Filters on the left side of the table allow you to see quotes that belong to a specific salesperson or inactive quotes. By default, the system shows only quotes for leads that the currently logged-in user has been assigned to. You can view all leads if you have the Salesperson system role and the Sales > Leads > All Leads permission. Quotes are made inactive when the sales folder status is changed to WIll Not Complete. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
