Copy & Re-Quote

It is possible to copy a Project for the purpose of re-quoting. Typical reasons for this include:

Wanting to request a quote for a slightly modified version of the current Project.
Repeat orders for different quantities.

Copying a Project copies all parts within the Project.

Click Copy & Re-Quote.

The Copy Project confirmation box appears.
Click Copy Project.

Add a Part

The Customer can add a new Part to the Project at the same time as placing an order for a quoted item.

Click the Add Part link under the listed Project Parts:

The Part can be a Quote Request or Rate Card order. The Customer completes the order as normal and it is stored as a Part of the current Project.

Add a Part version

The Customer can create new versions of a Project Part with slightly different specifications.

Creating a 'version' of a Part is similar to creating a copy. The difference is that a copy is completely independent of the original Part, so ordering or deleting the copy doesn't affect the original, and vice versa. A Part version is different in that it is linked to the original Part (and any other Part versions created from the original Part). This means that when one of the Part versions (or the original Part) is ordered, all the other linked versions will be 'rejected' (that is, can be viewed, but not edited or ordered).

Click the down arrow next to Action.
Click Add a version.
Choose the type of part item you want the new version to be Based on.
Enter a reason, if required and click Create New Version.

Cancel a Part / Version

The Customer can cancel a part or a part version, which removes it from the Project. The Customer might need to do this, for example, if it was created in error or is no longer needed.

Click the down arrow next to Action.
Click Cancel this part/version.
Enter a reason, if required and click Cancel the Part.
