Requests for quotes into priced quotes, in minutes not days
Quoting reads the RFQs your customers send, prices every line from your ERP with that customer’s terms, and drafts the quote for a rep to check. Once it’s sent, an accepted quote becomes an order without re-keying.
Slow quotes lose orders to whoever answers first
A long RFQ means looking up every line, checking the customer’s price and stock, then building the quote by hand. The bigger the request, the longer it waits.
-
Every line looked up by hand
Reps search the ERP for each product, price and stock level, often for a customer who uses their own part numbers.
-
Prices that don’t match the contract
A missed price break or an old contract rate means a quote that’s too high to win or too low to keep the margin.
-
Accepted quotes keyed in again
When the customer says yes, someone types the same lines into the ERP as a sales order.
How Quoting works
-
1
RFQs from anywhere
Requests arrive by email, as PDFs or spreadsheets, or through a quote request on your TierCommerce storefront.
-
2
Matched to your catalogue
Customer part numbers and descriptions are matched to your SKUs, the same way Order Entry matches purchase orders.
-
3
Priced for that customer
Each line gets the customer’s contract price, price list or quantity break from your ERP, with GST shown the way they expect.
-
4
Checked against stock
Stock on hand is checked for every line, so the quote says what you can actually supply.
-
5
A rep checks and sends
The draft waits for a rep, who can adjust a price or swap a product, then sends it in one click. Approval rules apply to discounts and large quotes.
-
6
Accepted quotes become orders
When the customer accepts, the quote becomes a sales order in your ERP with nothing re-keyed.

Priced from the system you already run
Quoting reads prices and stock, and writes accepted orders, through the same native integrations as the rest of TierCommerce.
Quoting questions
Where do RFQs come from?
From email, as PDFs or spreadsheets, or as quote requests made on your TierCommerce storefront. Customers don’t have to change how they ask.
Does a person check the quote before it goes out?
Yes. Quoting drafts the quote and a rep checks it, adjusts anything they need to, and sends it. Your approval rules for discounts and large quotes still apply.
Which prices does it use?
The ones in your ERP for that customer: contract prices, customer price lists and quantity breaks, with GST shown the way the customer expects.
What happens when a customer accepts?
The quote becomes a sales order in your ERP, with the same lines, prices and terms. Nobody keys it in again.
