Learn how to edit a Quote on the run in AroFlo Field

Updated on August 5th, 2024

After you've created a quote and saved, the quote then opens in edit mode. From here, you can add items and checklists to it, record the client's approval or rejection of the quote, or change any of the details you entered earlier.

See Quotes - overview for more information including quote tabs, quote status, descriptions, and adding labor on a quote.

 

 

Update status and substatus

When viewing a quote, updating the quote status and/or substatus is done in exactly the same way that you do for tasks; the only difference is that the statuses will have different names.

See Quotes - overview for descriptions of the four statuses.

If approving a quote, you'll have an extra field to record the acceptance status. See Approve a Quote for more information.

 

 

Line Items

Tap the Line Items tab, or the View Line Items option to view the items on the quote.

Alternatively, if your quote is yet to have items on it, you'll have different options here, including a Quick Total option to set a quick quoted amount.

See Add items to a quote for more information on adding items to your quote, or Quote Items for more information on interacting with line items.
