What can we help with?

Providing quotes to your customers offers them a clear summary of framing details and costs, without requiring the commitment of an immediate payment. This allows you to organize potential orders as Quotes before committing them to invoices. The article below walks you through how easy it is to manage and convert quotes in your LifeSaver Software software.

To access this area of the software, click the Write Work Orders button on the Home page and the Write Work Orders page will open. 

1. On the Write Work Orders page, add any details necessary for the work order, then click the Add To Invoice button.
   
   
2. On the Invoice page, add any additional work orders or inventory items for the quote.
   
   
3. Select a customer and click the Save button.
   
   
4. Click the Quote button on the message that displays.
   
   
5. Enter a description of the quote and click the OK button.
   
   
6. Click the Print button to produce a paper (or PDF) copy or click the Email button to send it directly to the customer. Click the Done button when you’re ready to finalize the quote and save it in your system with a “Hold Status” until you’re ready to resume or cancel it.
   
   

Please Note: The quote receipt can display the total amount of the work order only or it can display component prices and total work order amount. The option is available by going to your Home page > Store Configuration > Settings. The default setting is to list component totals and total amount.
