All the products/services added to the quote are listed under the Document Items tab of the Quote Workbook.

Once the items are in the quote, changes can be made to each of the line items.  You can change almost any aspect of every item such as quantity, description, cost, price, etc.The quote totals are always automatically recalculated when you make changes and they are displayed at the bottom of the quote.  You can also select one or several of the items on your quote to see their individual totals, costs, profit, commission, etc.

Totals for All/Selected Items
You can also select 1 or several of the items on your quote to see their individual totals, costs, profit, commission, etc. in the Totals for All Items frame above the items grid. When no items are selected, the totals for all the line items are displayed.

Tax Code

You can specify the tax code for each item.

Adjusting Markup and Margin

Once your products are added to the quote, you can adjust the markup, margin, and discounts by changing the PriceModifier column to reflect the appropriate value. You can select from a list or manually type it in; for example, you can manually type in "P21" for a 21% margin.

Best, Latest, Compare

Refresh items with the best, latest, or compare buttons on the document.  

Best
The QuoteWerks Refresh with Best Price feature will search all the vendor product databases to find the vendor that has the lowest purchasing price for each of the items in your quote.

Latest
The QuoteWerks Refresh with Latest Price feature will refresh the prices of the items in the quote with the current prices.  This is especially useful and time saving in those situations where a customer calls one month after you provided a quote, and says that they want to move forward with the quote. You can very easily refresh the prices to see if any of the prices went up or down.

Whether the price of the product increased or decreased, QuoteWerks will prompt you to decide if you want to pass the profit/loss on to your customer, or absorb it yourself.

Compare
When ordering items that are in your quote, it is often useful to know what each vendor's price is for each of the products on your order.

The QuoteWerks vendor price comparison worksheet will help you negotiate a better price with your vendor by leveraging this information, or at the very least, you can purchase from the vendor with the lowest price.

Customizing Quote Columns

The columns that you see on the quote can be customized to your preference. You can change the order that the columns are displayed and you can rename the columns.

For example, maybe you would prefer to name the "Unit Price" column to "Retail Price".

Bundles

If you often quote groups of items at once, you will find the QuoteWerks bundling features very useful.  

You can create a bundle that includes all the items that you want to quote together and you can specify details like the quantity of each item that should be included in the bundle.  With a bundle created, the next time you need to add that group of items to the quote, you can simply select the bundle and all the items in the bundle will be added to the quote.

This saves you time by not requiring that you find and select each item, and it ensures that you will not forget to remember some of the items that are supposed to be in the bundle.

Configurator

The QuoteWerks Configurator is used to simplify the quoting process for sales representatives. The Configurator will walk a salesperson through a step-by-step process of building the quote.

Each selection that the salesperson makes will change the course of the configuration. If the salesperson selects an 4 inch by 6 inch picture in one step, in the next step, the Configurator will only display picture frames that a 4 inch by 6 inch picture will fit in.

The Configurator ensures that the salesperson will not forget any steps and lowers the experience level required by the salesperson since the Configurator is guiding them through the selections.
