How to Build a Quote Generator With Line Items
A quote generator with line items lets you assemble a quote by selecting products or services, setting quantities, and linking the whole thing to a client record.
Why quoting is slower than it should be
Quotes are repetitive documents built from information the company already holds.
- Prices looked up in a catalogue each time
- Client details retyped onto every document
- Quotes stored as files with no link to the customer record
- Nobody notified when a new request arrives
What the quote flow should cover
| Step | What happens |
|---|---|
| Select client | Choose an existing client, add a new one, or quote without one |
| Add items | Products, services, or brands, with quantities |
| Adjust | Add or remove items before submitting |
| Submit | The quote is generated and linked to the client |
| Notify | A message arrives when a new quote comes in |
How to configure it in Jestor
- Open the quote builder in Jestor and select the client.
- Register a new client inline if they are not in the system yet — the quote links to them automatically.
- Add the items, choosing products, services, or brands, and set the quantities.
- Remove or add items as the customer changes their mind.
- Submit — the quote is generated and a notification confirms it arrived.
Why choose Jestor for quoting?
Jestor notifies you when a quote arrives whether it came through the builder or by email, so nobody has to sit watching the system waiting for requests.
Because quotes link to the client record, the full history of what a customer has been quoted is available from their card rather than from a folder of files.
