    A price table is the content block in a quote or proposal that holds the line items and calculates the totals. You add products from the product catalogue or type ad hoc lines, group them under section headings, and the table works out quantities, discounts, tax, subtotals and the overall total as you build. Clients see a clean, interactive table in the browser where they can tick permitted options, change permitted quantities, then accept and sign. Price tables are included from the Essentials plan.

    Full answer to: What can I brand in QuoteCloud documents?

    Upload your company logo under Details & Branding, add your own typefaces to the Font Book and set a default typography so headings and paragraphs use them. Style containers, columns and blocks with your colours, borders and background images, style price table headers, lines and totals, and add PDF headers and footers with your logo, dates and legal text. Save styled sections to the content library and build templates from them, so every proposal and quote starts on brand.

    Full answer to: Are QuoteCloud eSignatures legally binding?

    Yes. QuoteCloud eSignatures are legally binding and eIDAS compliant, eIDAS being the EU regulation for electronic signatures. Every completed document includes a certificate of authenticity and an audit trail, documents are protected with 256-bit encryption on Amazon Web Services hosting, and you can switch on one-time passcode verification so the right person signs.

  7. Can clients pay directly from a QuoteCloud quote?

    Yes. On Essentials and above, clients pay by Stripe or PayPal from the quote or proposal right after they sign it.

    Full answer to: Can clients pay directly from a QuoteCloud quote?

    Yes. Once you connect a payment gateway, clients can pay straight from the quote or proposal, on the same page, right after they accept and eSign it. When a client signs, they receive the payment request in the document and pay by card through Stripe or with PayPal. The document is then marked Paid on your dashboard, so the quote, the signature and the payment stay together and you can see who has paid without chasing.

  8. What is an approval workflow in QuoteCloud?

    A set of rules that decides which documents need internal sign-off before they are sent, and who signs them off.

    Full answer to: What is an approval workflow in QuoteCloud?

    An approval workflow is a set of rules that decides which quotes, proposals and contracts need internal sign-off before they reach the customer, and who gives it. You build it as a flow diagram in QuoteCloud's workflow editor: a trigger that decides when it applies, optional Switch conditions that route documents down different paths, approval steps, and a Ready to Send or Reject to Send outcome. Typical uses are large deals, deep discounts, non-standard terms and key accounts.
