STANDARDISED QUOTE MANAGEMENT

Companies can enforce SugarCRM as the only way through which any sales person can send pricing information and make the system work across all offices. This also consolidates the sales pipeline across offices and the head office gets latest data on the pipeline. The SugarCRM PDF Quote generator can be used to fine tune the Quote Format based on client requirement. You can choose the product that the customer wants, save the quote and either Email it directly from SugarCRM or download as PDF and send it by your Email Application.

Either way, when the price list is put into the product catalogue of the CRM, sales person can generate the Quote in 60 seconds. This avoids the cut and paste mechanism if you are using Excel Sheet for Price List and Word Template for Quote Format. Bhea has implemented quotation that have even product line item images embedded into the PDF quote.

DISCOUNT APPROVAL MECHANISM

Most of the time, many companies face the challenges of getting their quotes upto date and getting the discounts approved for customers. The sales executive might be permitted to give a pre-approved percentage of the price as discount, but for anything above he might need to get approval from management. SugarCRM can be used to put the discount approval process in place so that it is enforced through a quotation mechanism.
