Quotes with line-level discounts and tax. Approval workflows by amount and discount %. Version history per quote. One-click conversion to sales order. Credit limit checked at SO. Tax engine applies CGST, SGST or IGST per place of supply at this step, not later.

Quotes & Sales Orders FAQ
What buyers ask.
Can sales reps offer discounts beyond their authority?
Discounts above policy thresholds route to a higher approver. Per-rep limits are configurable. The discount approval is captured on the quote with the approver and reason. The trail is auditable.
What if the customer changes the order before invoicing?
Open SOs can be amended (line addition, quantity change, price revision). Each amendment is a new version with full history. The credit check re-runs on amendment. Once converted to invoice, changes go through the credit note workflow.
How does inter-state vs intra-state resolve at the quote?
The bill-to address sets the customer state; the ship-to address sets the place of supply for goods (Section 12). For services, Section 13 logic applies (most services follow the bill-to). The system applies the right CGST + SGST or IGST split at the SO step so the invoice is correct on first issue.
Can we do quote templates by customer or product line?
Yes. Reusable templates per customer segment or product line, with pre-filled line items, GL coding, discount caps and approver chains. Saves typing and prevents discount drift across reps.
