||||
|
||||
On an Odoo *Sales* quotation, add an expiration date in the :guilabel:`Expiration` field located at
|
||||
the top of the quotation or sales order form.

||||

|
||||
|
||||
To add an expiration date to a quotation, navigate to :menuselection:`Sales app`, and select a
|
||||
desired quotation, or create a new one by clicking :guilabel:`Create`.

|
||||
|
||||
On the quotation form, click :guilabel:`Edit` (if modifying a pre-existing quotation), and click the
|
||||
:guilabel:`Expiration` field. Doing so reveals a drop-down calendar, in which the month and date can
|
||||
be designated as the expiration date of the quotation.

||||
On the quotation form, click the :guilabel:`Expiration` field to reveal a pop-up calendar. From this
|
||||

Deadlines in quotation templates
|
||||
================================
|
||||
|
||||
The Odoo *Sales* application also makes it possible to add a deadline to every quotation template.
|
||||
Whenever a specific quotation template is used in a quote, its associated deadline is automatically
|
||||
applied.
|
||||
|
||||
To add a deadline to a quotation template, navigate to :menuselection:`Sales app --> Configuration
|
||||
--> Quotation Templates`, and either select the desired quotation template to which a deadline
|
||||
should be added, or click :guilabel:`Create` to build a new quotation template from scratch.
|
||||
|
||||
On the quotation template detail page, click the :guilabel:`Edit` button to edit the quotation.
|
||||
|
||||
Then, add a specific number of days to the :guilabel:`Quotation expires after` field, located
|
||||
beneath the quotation template name. The number of days represents how long the quotation will be
|
||||
valid for, before it expires. When done, click :guilabel:`Save`.

|
||||
By clicking the :guilabel:`Customer Preview` button on a quotation, Odoo clearly displays when
|
||||
that specific offer expires. As a reminder, the number of days is the same as those mentioned in
|
||||
the quotation template (if a quotation template was used for the initial quotation).
|
||||
By clicking the :guilabel:`Preview` button on a quotation, Odoo clearly displays when that

Quotation template expiration
|
||||
=============================
|
||||
|
||||
The Odoo *Sales* application also makes it possible to add a deadline expiration date to quotation
|
||||
templates.
|
||||
|
||||
To add a deadline expiration date to a quotation template, navigate to :menuselection:`Sales app -->
|
||||
Configuration --> Quotation Templates`, and either select the desired quotation template to which a
|
||||
deadline should be added, or click :guilabel:`New` to build a new quotation template from scratch.
|
||||
|
||||
On the quotation template form, add a specific number of days to the :guilabel:`Quotation expires
|
||||
after` field, located beneath the quotation template name. The number of days represents how long
|
||||
the quotation will be valid for, before it expires.

:alt: The quotation expires after field on a quotation template form in Odoo Sales.
|
||||
|
||||
Then, whenever that specific quotation template is used in a quote, an expiration date is
|
||||
automatically calculated, based on the number of days designated above. However, this date can be
|
||||
overwritten before sending the quotation to the customer.
