Use Quote Maintenance to define a quote for price groups or products. The quote is selectable during order entry on the Pricing Override screen, and overrides other pricing rules.
Quotes are:
Assigned to any customer. Notify customers of a special price quote and instruct them to relay the quote name or number to the order taker.
Assigned an effective date and an expiration date. Once the expiration date is reached, the quote is not offered during order entry.
Assigned an original quantity and a remaining quantity for each product assigned to the quote. The amount can be in units, pounds, load factor, or dollars worth of product. When the remaining quantity reaches zero, the quote pricing expires. If a customer orders more than the remaining quantity of a product on a quote, normal pricing goes into effect for the number of items over the remaining quantity.
The Quote Process

The system checks the quote for pricing for every item entered on the order. The quoted price for a price group or product overrides all other matrix cells in the pricing matrix hierarchy as long as the best price check is not active.
