Before: every proforma by hand
Preparing a proforma by hand means repeating the same tasks for every line of the order note:
- Finding the product code in the price list
- Picking the price grade for the fabric
- Working out the discount and VAT
- Adding product images to the template
- Retyping the payment and delivery terms
After: from order note to proforma
The price list, images and terms were uploaded once. Every quote now comes out in the same three steps.

Review
