Dealer Messages are for communication between Dealer and Back-office (not meant for any other communications) regarding specific Application only. From represents person who created the message (by user ID, NOT by salesperson on application or owner of the workflow task). To is a salesperson on application, when message sent from back-office, or just Back-Office (not particular person or team) if message sent from Dealer. The only editable field is the message is text itself.

3. Quotes

A Quote is used for making a proposal for asset finance prospects. It is the beginning of the overall financing process.
For a simpler process users are not required to fill either a contact or an asset card to output a quote. Quote requires financial product, originator, contact details, asset to finance and financing program information.
The process starts by selecting financial product. Quote number is assigned automatically, and Quote record is inserted. Quote Date field is filled with the current system date and initial Status is assigned by the system.
When all necessary data input is complete user can click action Print Quote to produce Quote printout. Behind the scenes this action has two steps:

  • Quote Data verification. System checks if all mandatory information is captured on the Quote and shows the list of errors if something is missing.

  • Quote printout template is selected, and document is generated by injecting data from the system into the template. Note: All printouts are stored in the system and can be reviewed or re-printed later.

User can create application as well by clicking the action Create Application. Data is verified again and if no issues are detected then new Application is created by copying all data from the quote. After Application creation the Quote is moved into Converted Quotes archive automatically.
User can also withdraw a Quote with action Withdraw Quote. To withdraw a quote a reason must be provided by the user. Withdrawn quotes can be reinstated in Withdrawn Quotes list by clicking Reinstate Withdrawn Quote action. This action updates Status back to New and Quote Date is set to current system date.
