Scheduling and sales

Prepare proposals, work orders, and service orders

Prepare template-based Documents PDFs. This is separate from estimating proposals, links and e-signatures.

Prepare shared templates

Platform: Web. Actions depend on your role and permitted records.

Administrators open Settings → Document templates. Start with a proposal, work order, or service order and adapt the wording to your business. Templates are plain text with a fixed list of {{company}}, {{customer}}, and {{job}} fields; use the exact supported markers shown on screen.

  1. Step 1: Choose a starter and name the template.
  2. Step 2: Fill your usual scope structure, exclusions, responsibilities and reviewed company terms.
  3. Step 3: Save the template. AI can propose these templates through MCP, but an administrator must approve the proposal.

Prepare a customer document

Platform: Web. Actions depend on your role and permitted records.

Open Documents, choose a saved or starter template, then select a customer or job you are allowed to access. Preview fills the supported fields from that record. Job fields require a job rather than just a lead.

  1. Step 1: Review missing-field warnings and the customer/job details.
  2. Step 2: Edit this document’s preview to complete project scope, materials, payment terms and dates.
  3. Step 3: Download the PDF and review it before sharing with the customer.

Understand drafts and storage

Platform: Web. Actions depend on your role and permitted records.

Missing values and unfinished bracket instructions retain a DRAFT label. Preview edits do not update your shared template or customer record and are lost when refreshed. Save the downloaded PDF somewhere appropriate. This feature does not send documents, collect signatures, process payments, or store final-document history.
