Event Setup Step 3: Create Quote

For collaborative events only: In Sho-Soft, creating a quote allows you to provide your client with a detailed cost breakdown for spaces, inventory, and workforce. Quotes can be reviewed by clients before being converted into invoices.

Note: You can skip this step if the event is Self-Produced. Only complete this step for Collaborative Events.

1. Open Create Quote

  • Click the Start button next to Create Quote on the setup list pop-up (bottom right corner).

  • Or, click the yellow Create Quote button on the event page.



  • You will be routed to the Quote Viewer page under the Sales tab.

2. Add Quote Items

  • Click the purple Edit button next to Space, Inventory, Workforce or Ad Hoc.



  • On the next page, click the white Add button (top of the page).

        
  • Select the item from the dropdown or type in a new item and fill in the details in the pop-up.

    • Note: Only spaces added under the Venue tab can be selected for quotes (you can always add/edit spaces under the venue tab) .

       

  • After adding entries, click the Close button next to the Add button to return to the Quote Viewer page.

     

3. Review Quote

  • Once all items are added, check the initial quote total displayed at the bottom of the Quote Viewer page.

4. Send Quote for Client Review
