Quotes

Price the work, send it to your customer and get it approved and signed online.

A quote is a price proposal for work you haven't done yet. You build it in ServFlo, send it to the customer by email or text, and the customer approves and signs it on a web page, with no account or app needed. When they approve, you turn the quote into a job or an invoice in one click.

You'll find quotes under Sales → Quotes. Each customer's page also lists their quotes.

Key ideas

  • Options. A quote can have one option (a plain quote) or up to five, for example Good, Better and Best. The customer picks one.
  • Line items. Each option has its own lines. Type them in, or pick services and materials from your pricebook.
  • Optional extras. Mark a line as optional and the customer can add it or leave it off. The total updates as they choose.
  • Deposit. Ask for a percentage or a fixed amount when the customer approves.
  • Customer link. Every quote you send has its own private link. Anyone with the link can view and answer the quote.
