# Enable Auto-Approval on Quotes

### **What is Auto-Approval?**

Auto-approval allows customers to generate and view quotes instantly from your storefront without needing manual price approval by your team. This provides a faster quoting experience for standard products while maintaining control over pricing and expiry periods.

### **Who is this for**

- Dealers who want their customers to create and auto-convert quotes to orders directly on their storefront.
- Available for all dealers through Company Settings › Storefront.

### **Before you start**

Make sure:

- Your company is using the Toolbx-managed quote flow (auto-approval is not supported in ERP-managed mode).
- You have access to Company Settings in Dealer Admin.
- You’ve decided how many days quotes should remain valid before they expire.

### **How to enable Auto-Approval**

1. Go to Company Settings in Dealer Admin.
2. Select the Storefront tab.
3. Under **Quotes**, toggle ‘**Should Accept Quotes Automatically**’ to on.
4. Enter the number of days a quote should remain valid before it expires.
5. Click Save.

This configuration applies only to customer-created quotes that:

- Contain standard (non-custom) products
- Are for pickup only

### **What happens next**

Once auto-approval is enabled:

- Customers can create quotes directly from your storefront.
- When a customer submits a quote, they’ll immediately receive a “Quote is Ready” email.
- The quote becomes available right away in their Customer Portal, where they can review pricing and accept the quote to convert it to an order.
- Pricing is valid until the set expiry date.
- Dealers can still update quotes through Dealer Admin if necessary.

Quotes that include custom items or delivery will continue to require dealer approval through the standard quote flow.

### **FAQs**

**Q: Can I still change an auto-approved quote?**  
A: Yes. You can update or edit an auto-approved quote directly in Dealer Admin.

**Q: What happens if a customer adds a custom product?**  
A: The quote automatically switches to the dealer-approval flow so you can confirm pricing before it’s sent.

**Q: Does this work for quotes with delivery?**  
A: No. Auto-approval applies only to pick up quotes with standard products.
