Can I create an automatic quotation for my customers?

Last updated Mar 12 2018

Sure you can.
a quote / Quoting / Quotation form enables you to collect your clients' information and automatically create a custom quote based on it. 
This is a great use case which replaces a sales person.

Creating an automatic quote:
This is really simple to do, quite frankly, using conditional logic and calculated fields.
Calculated field/s
The calculated field uses the data entered in the form within a mathematical formula you configure and then produces an automated estimate.
As for the conditional logic: If there is more than one possible flow to get a quote, you can add a few calculated fields that contain different formulas and use the conditional logic to route different data to a different calculated field.
for example: Let's say you are selling 2 products :Pro A and Pro B,  They have the same price of 50$, but, there is a 20% discount on Pro A and a 50% discount on Pro B. In this case you would need one calculated field that calculates Pro A price, quantity and 20% discount rate. and another 
calculated field for the Pro B price, quantity and 50% discount.

Providing the quote
Once the quote is calculated all that's left is to hand it out to your customer. There are many options to do this - here are some:
- You can display the quote inside the form using a string type calculated field.
- You can also display the quote in a custom thank you message after the form is submitted.
- You can create a custom email - giving your customer a carbon copy of the quote.
- You can create a PDF document based on the data entered in the form and have it sent to the customer.
and you can add a Payment integration to your form and have your customer continue to an online purchase right after showing him the quote in the form.
