Amending a Quotation Record

Once you have created a Quotation you have the option to amend it. All aspects of the quote can be amended apart from the Quote No, Customer/Prospect Account and Currency, which relates to the customer account (these fields will be greyed out). The Last Updated date is a system-maintained field.

Superseded Revisions: There may be scenarios where a customer or prospect wishes to revert back to, or place an order for a previous revision of a quotation. If you choose a superseded revision from the main quotation list and select Amend, you will be presented with the following question:

If you continue, the revision number field will automatically be incremented above the current latest revision, and will make the current revision superseded when saved.
