Customer portal with online quote approval

Every document you send to a customer carries a link. The customer views the document, downloads the PDF and approves the quote without creating an account or remembering a password.

  • No account and no password needed
  • Online approval and rejection
  • You know when a document has been opened
Quote in the customer portal: items, totals, terms and the form to accept the quote.

What does the customer see?

A link to a single document opens only that document. A customer link lists all documents of the customer: quotes, orders, invoices and contracts. An invoice shows the amount, the amount paid and the amount outstanding, together with your bank details.

  • Quotes, orders, invoices and contracts
  • PDF download
  • Documents in the language of the customer
  • Draft documents are not shown in the portal

Online quote approval

The customer types their name when approving the quote. The time of approval and the IP address are recorded on the document and your team is notified. A quote whose validity period has expired cannot be approved.

  • Approve or reject
  • An approved quote is ready to be converted to an order
  • A “viewed” mark when the document is opened

Security of the links

Links are generated with random keys that are too long to guess and are not written to the server logs. Portal addresses are closed to search engines.

  • Random key of 48 characters
  • Rate limit on approval and rejection
  • A link can be added to the document as a QR code
