Offers
With the Offers module, you can create and manage your offers directly in ZEP. Using the stored offer process, several employees can participate in the creation, review and submission of offers. When you place an order, you can transfer the offer to a project or process at the touch of a button. When you use the invoicing module, ZEP automatically creates the associated invoice items for later billing.
An offer goes through the following statuses:
new
In Progress
complete
(under review)
(checked)
Document created
offered as mail / offered as letter
commissioned / rejected
You can transfer a commissioned offer directly into a project or insert it as a process/processes into an existing project. The offer items are created as processes and, if possible, planned figures are entered. If you use the invoicing module, planned invoice items are also created according to the offer items.
Create offer templates, optionally with attachments, e.g. your terms and conditions.
