Quotes and estimates

Send a priced proposal before the work starts, export it as a branded PDF, and track whether the customer accepts.

Quotes and estimates

A quote is a priced proposal you send before doing the work. Quotes live under CRM → Quotes and look a lot like invoices — line items, tax, totals, and a branded PDF — but they represent an offer, not a bill.

Creating a quote

CRM → Quotes → New:

  1. Choose the account.
  2. Add line items (description, quantity, unit price). Totals update live.
  3. Add tax and any validity dates.
  4. Set the status and save.

Sending it

Export the PDF — branded with your logo, colors, and business details, in your workspace's customer-facing language and currency — and send it to the customer for approval.

Tracking

Quotes carry a status so you can see what's outstanding, accepted, or declined at a glance from the list. Use bulk actions to update several at once.

On mobile

Quotes can also be created and edited from the mobile app, so a tech can price a job standing in front of the customer.
