How it works

The journey of a job, from the request received by email to payment. Each step corresponds to a shipped feature.

  1. The request arrives by email

    Your customer sends their quote request with drawings (DWG, PDF, STEP). The email is received on your dedicated address: the contact and the company are identified, the attachments retrieved.

    Email received with drawing

  2. The quote is created in one click

    The request is recognised as such; the quote is created with the drawings already linked to the lines. If the email is a supplier offer, a supplier quote is created instead.

  3. You estimate

    Materials and purchases, operation times, margins: estimating is structured, with reusable templates and suggestions drawn from your previous quotes. You remain the decision maker.

  4. The quote goes to the customer

    PDF on your letterhead, sent by email with the attachment. Successive versions are kept; unanswered quotes are reminded automatically.

  5. The accepted quote becomes an order

    With no re-entry. The tasks to do are generated at every status change (preparation, procurement…).

  6. Purchasing follows

    Supplier consultation, purchase orders, partial receipts, supplier invoices matched against orders.

  7. Manufacturing is organised

    Manufacturing order with bill of materials and routing; Pass-Prod checklists validated per department with sign-offs.

  8. Delivery

    Delivery note as PDF; lines are tracked on the balance if everything does not ship at once.

  9. Invoicing

    Invoice in one click from the order: legal numbering, partial payments, Factur-X export and transmission via PDP for e-invoicing.

  10. Payment is tracked

    Receipts, automatic overdue status, reminders generated as tasks until payment.

What if I don’t want to go through email?

Everything can also be done by hand: create a quote, an order or an invoice directly in the interface. Email automation saves time; it is not mandatory.
