Quotations

To save a quote, enter a title and press the quote button. It will be listed at the bottom of the window, along with other quotations. Selecting a quote will activate it and present the full details in the right-hand panel. By right clicking on the quote these details can be copied to the clipboard in text form so they can be pasted into an email.

If the file has been modified, you will be asked to save before closing. The supplier’s XML file is updated to include the quotations you have derived from their price list.
