Quotation template
Introduction
The quotation template allows you to take an existing quotation template and use it for any partner (i.e. third party).
Quotation templates can be created in two ways:
-
From a sale quotation file (access: Sales → Sale quotation).
-
From the Configurations menu (access: Sales → Configuration → Quotation template).
