created with reference to this Inquiry.
This document describes the procedure required for creating the Quotation for a
Customer.
What you should know
Quotation shall only be created for Non Trade Customers
Quotation shall only be created with reference to an Inquiry
Quotation for supply of Material from Depot or Manufacturing Plant shall be created at the Depot
itself. Once the Customer finally agrees on a quoted Price and Conditions, only then the Sales
Order shall be created. In case the Customer disagrees on certain issues and you need to revise
your Quotation, then you will have to create a new Quotation with respect to the earlier Quotation.
In case of supply of Material from Plant, the Depot which has prepared the Inquiry and Quotation,
passes on the relevant information to the plant and the Manufacturing Plant prepares the Sales
Order on the System.
In case a new price for the same Inquiry has to be given then a quotation can be made with
reference to a Quotation
The Sales Promoter cannot be changed at Quotation from the one mentioned in the Inquiry
Schedule lines represent the delivery schedules requested by the Customer and same can be
entered in the Quotation. It will be copied to Sales Order.
