FAQ
Should quotes live only in the CRM?
CRMs track deals; quote tools own line-level pricing and documents. Link both via deal IDs.
How do I prevent stale pricing?
Version quotes and expire them automatically; require refresh when catalog prices change.
Can customers accept online?
Yes. Provide a secure acceptance page that records IP, timestamp, and accepted version.
