How To Mark An Individual Price Line Item As Optional (Customer Chooses To Purchase)

Home

In some instances, it is important to provide the customer the option to purchase a product on the sales quote or not. Whether because you've offered an optional add-on (ie: warranty), complimentary service/product, upsell opportunity, etc., or the customer is still undecided and wants two options listed, QuoteCloud makes it very simple to allow the customer to decide on individual price line items at time of approving.

When in the Sales Quote Editor, hover over the line item you wish to mark as optional and click on the three vertical dots at the right of the price table row, as shown below.
