Proposals Overview

Proposals are used to list items your business wants to sell to a prospective customer or an existing customer. A proposal is comprised of one or multiple elements: Items, Inventory Parts, or RMR. You can see the costs connected to the elements within the proposal to determine the profitability for your company.

You can add a new system to the proposal. This uses the same process as adding a system to a customer site. You can edit the system from the proposal. When you mark the proposal as sold and complete and generate a work order or an invoice from the proposal, Managely adds the system to the customer.

For companies that sell grouped items regularly, you can create sales packages to reduce the amount of data entry time when creating a proposal. For more information on sales packages, navigate to Setup > Proposals > Packages.

The Proposals page has three tabs:  Open/Closed tab, Accepted tab, and Rejected tab.
