Step-by-Step Implementation

1. Prepare Clear, Professional Quotes

Clearly outline items, unit prices, taxes, and payment terms, and always specify an expiry date.

Once approved, transform quote rows into a confirmed order without retyping item details or prices.

4. Invoice and Deliver Seamlessly

Convert orders to sales invoices at fulfillment; deduct stock automatically and update accounts immediately.
