What's New in QuoteWerks 4.6

 QuoteValet

QuoteValet is the online quote delivery and acceptance vehicle for QuoteWerks. QuoteValet is a more robust way to deliver quotes to your customers and prospects.

Rather than attaching a PDF file to the quote and emailing it to your customer, QuoteValet will create a personalized web page to present the quote on quotevalet.com

The advantage of using QuoteValet is that you will actually know when your customer has received the quote. You will know when they have viewed the quote and how often they review the quote.

Your customer will be able to change quote options dynamically and ask you questions through the customized quote page (keeping all communication together). Most importantly, they will be able to electronically accept and sign the quote!

QuoteValet is an additional Subscription.

Word Merging

You can now create Microsoft Word based quotes and proposals from within QuoteWerks rather than using our built-in layout designer.

Everyone knows how to use Microsoft Word. Word is more flexible than report designers and it is easy to design a Word based Quote layout since you already know how to use Word. QuoteWerks simply inserts the data into your Word document wherever you want it. After merging, it is easy to make changes or tweaks to the Word document providing you the best of both worlds - macro replacement and the ability to edit afterwards. To top it all off, QuoteWerks then automatically saves your data merged Word document as a PDF file and links it into the quote.

Advantages of Word Merging:

• You can choose to insert only certain item types into certain areas of the Word document
• You can have your service items on Page 2 and have your product items on page 5
• You can have item type total summaries anywhere in the Word Document
• You can include Line item Product Pictures in the the Word document

HTML Email

The QuoteWerks built-in E-mail client now supports HTML E-mail. You can do text formatting - Fonts, Bold, Color, etc. You can include images (Linked or Embedded). QuoteWerks Macro fields can even be merged into the email. The E-mail window has been updated with a new interface including a resizable window. The new HTML email client works with both the built-in QuoteWerks SMTP email and the QuoteWerks automation ofOutlook.

First impressions are important. Now, your customer's first impression when receiving the quote will be an HTML formatted email with your branding versus just plain text.

Quote Approval and Peer Review

Have you ever had a sales rep email a quote to a customer that you wished you had reviewed before the customer received it? You now have that power within QuoteWerks!

With the new Approval Requirements feature you can require that your sales reps obtain approval from you before a quote can be printed, emailed, or uploaded to QuoteValet.

Per Sales Rep. You can activate the Approval requirement per sales rep, and define under which conditions the approval is required and by who the approval needs to be obtained from.

Per Document or Line Item. An Approval requirement can be triggered on a document or line item level. For example, if any single item's margin is less than 5%, then this quote requires an approval, or if the margin on the entire quote is less than 15%, then this quote requires an approval.

Approval Escalation. When an approval is required, you can specify who is authorized to approve the quote. For example, if the quote amount is greater than 10,000 it requires the single approval from the sales reps manager. If the quote amount is greater than 50,000 then it requires a single approval from an escalated approver such as the CEO. If the quote amount is greater than 100,000 then it requires multiple approvals from escalated approvers such as the CEO and CFO.

There are many different scenarios that can be accounted for.

When used with the optional QuoteValet subscription, the approval features are greatly extended.

Mutually Exclusive Items & Optional Groups

Entire Groups (rather than just individual line items) can now be flagged as optional!

Individual items and Groups can now be set as mutually exclusive, so selecting one optional group will automatically de-select the other optional group or item.

While a quote can have, for example, 3 grouped options, you can now set one of the options as the selected (or recommended) option. These new features are particularly useful with the QuoteValet integration, as you can present one or more mutually exclusive options to your customer and you can pre-select the option that you recommend. Even when not using QuoteValet, these features still save you time.

Heading Lines

There is now a new "Heading" type line item in QuoteWerks. Typically Comment type line items would be also be used as Headings. Now, there are defined Heading and Comment line items.

When Heading lines are used, on the Add Item Assistant or from the Bundles, or Configurator, you can choose to insert the item as the first item under the heading, or append the item the last item under the Heading. When appending it as the "last" item under the Heading, it uses some "artificial Intelligence", so if the last items under the heading are a blank comment line, % charge line, % discount line, or subtotal line, then the item is added above those items.

Heading lines are also useful in the printed output as Heading type line items can have their font larger and bold, whereas comments could be the same font size as the regular Product/Service line items.

Some examples for Heading lines would be like:

• "Family Room"
• "Master Bedroom"
• "Theater Room"
• "Service"
• "Parts"
• "Servers"
• "Workstations"
• "Services"
• "Managed Services"
• "Anti-Virus"
• "Monitoring"
