Text

Jim2 allows to pre-define specific text, such as company terms and conditions, to appear on every quote. This can be performed through Tools > Options > Quote, accessed via the Jim2 menu. If default header and footer text have been set up in the Quote Options, that will be displayed here.

This will allow consistent quoting procedures in the business. From this information, relevant quote reports can be provided to customers. Quotes add vital statistical data to the Jim2 database to help manage the sales pipeline, forecasting and productivity.

Users can also add personalised messages to a quote in the Text tab.
