If you want to create a quote or invoice template, follow these steps or watch this tutorial:
1) Go to Biz Setup > Quote Template
2) Click on+ Add new template
Select
one of the 4 editable templates - These templates are the base templates for customizing your own template.
Edit mode - On
the left side of the screen is where you will design, edit and create your
template.
View mode - On the right side of the screen is where you can visualize your design and changes.
Visualization menu - From this menu, you can see how clients visualize the template as:
- Quote in the body of the Email
- Invoice in the body of the Email
- Quote attached to the email in PDF format
- Invoice attached to the email in PDF format
IMPORTANT!! The text and content that you see in edit mode and view mode is just sample text. This content will be replaced automatically every time with your client, business, and products information when sending a quote.
In the edit mode, you won't see the changes made to the template, to visualize these changes you must do it in the view mode that is located on the right side of your screen.
NOTE: When you send a quote or invoice to your client, it will ALWAYS come with an attached PDF. This file can be used as a presentation of your business or services along with your quote. Later, I will show you how to create it.
