To simplify the quote creation process, Hyperline offers a feature to create templates, allowing you to pre-configure a quote for it to be sent in a few clicks. As with any other concept in Hyperline, values entered in the quote template can be overridden after selecting the template in the quote creation process.

Editing a quote template will not impact the draft quotes creating using this template.

Creating a template

Quotes templates are nested under the quoting folder, on the templates page.

1

Name the template

Add a name and optionally an internal description to make it easily identifiable for your sales team.

2

Configure quote details

Pre-configure the expiration delay and information required from customers to sign the quote.

3

Optionally, select a plan

Quote templates can contain a pre-configured plan. This will generate a subscription filled with the contract, products and price configurations, coupons and invoicing settings based on the customers’ country and currency. These pre-filled information can be overridden while creating the quote.

More details in the manage plans page.

4

Optionally, configure additional information

You can add a note for the customer and contract terms, that can be pre-filled with clauses configured in settings > quoting.

5

Optionally, add attachments

When sending a quote to a customer, you might want to attach a contract or your terms and condition so they can sign both the quote and the contract simultaneously.

Attachments can be :

  • Added manually on the template
  • Added dynamically based on the customers’ country and language through localized attachments configured in settings > quoting.
6

Save the template

Using a template

When creating a quote, you can select a pre-configured template or start with an empty quote by selecting configure manually.

Localized attachments

If your team frequently sends quotes with the same contract details, manually attaching files can become time-consuming, especially for sales teams that may struggle to select the right templates.

With localized attachments, you can configure attachments to be automatically added based on the invoicing entity, country and language of the customer.

1

Create a localized attachment

Give it a descriptive name and select the invoicing entities eligible (attachments will only be available for customers linked to selected entities).

2

Add a file

Click on new file and choose the language and country. The file will be automatically attached to quotes for customers matching these criteria when using a quote template with this localized attachment.

3

Select attached file

Add a file with the following format : PDF, DOC, DOCX, PPT, PPTX or TXT that is 5mo max.

With your localized attachment now configured, you can add it to your quote templates. Attachments will then be automatically added to quotes created using the template.

Clauses

Clauses are a lighter version of localized attachments, that allows you to add dynamic text based on the invoicing entity and customers’ language in the contract terms text field.

1

Create a clause

Give it a descriptive name and select the invoicing entities eligible (clauses will only be available for customers linked to selected entities).

2

Add content

Enter content in the text area. You can add alternative versions for different languages by clicking on the blue globe icon. If translations are not set, the default version will be added.

After configuring the clause, you can add it to your quote templates. When creating a quote using the template, the clause content will be automatically pre-filled in the contract term field in the customers’ language.
