Understanding the Quotes Module in Konfiwear

The Quotes module is where every customer request lands. When a customer finalizes a design in the customizer and clicks "Request Quote", a quote is created with all the customization details — This guide covers how quotes work, the pipeline, revision.


What Is a Quote?

Konfiwear uses a two-level quote model:

Entity

What It Represents

Quote Group

The business object — one per customer request. Carries the contact info, quote number, pipeline status, and source.

Quote (Revision)

An immutable snapshot of the order details — product, design, colors, graphics, sizes, pricing, delivery preferences. Multiple revisions can exist per group.

When a customer submits a request, a quote group is created with its first revision. If the customer requests changes, a new revision is created — the previous one is marked as superseded. Only one revision can be active at any time.

💡 Tip: Think of the quote group as the "folder" and revisions as "versions of the document inside it." The quote number stays the same across all revisions — what changes is the design and pricing snapshot.


Quote Numbers

Every quote group gets an auto-generated quote number in the format {prefix}-{year}-{sequence}, for example: QR-2026-0001.

  • The prefix is configurable in Settings → Global (default: QR)

  • Sequence numbers are unique per account and auto-increment within each year

  • Quote numbers are stable — they never change, even when revisions are created


The Quote Pipeline

Quote groups follow a seven-stage business workflow:

submitted → quoted → approved → confirmed → in_production → completed                                                               ↗      any non-terminal state → cancelled

Status

Badge

What It Means

Submitted

Customer has submitted the request. Your team hasn't responded yet.

Quoted

Your team has reviewed the request and sent a price quote back.

Approved

The customer has approved the quote.

Confirmed

Payment or contract is confirmed. Ready for production.

In Production

The order is being manufactured.

Completed

Green

Order fulfilled and delivered. Terminal state.

Cancelled

Red

Cancelled from any non-terminal state. Terminal state.

Status transitions are enforced server-side — you can only move forward in the pipeline or cancel. Skipping stages is not allowed.

⚠️ Important: Completed and Cancelled are terminal states. Once a quote reaches either, no further transitions are possible.


Quote Sources

Each quote group records where it originated:

Source

Description

Customizer

Submitted through the public 3D customizer at /c/your-slug

Builder

Created from the builder interface

Manual

Created manually by your team from the dashboard

API

Teamstore

Navigating the Quotes Module

The Quotes List

Go to Quotes from the Leads section in the sidebar. The list page shows a data table of all quote groups with:

  • Search by quote number, contact name, company, or email

  • Status filter — filter by any combination of the seven statuses

  • Source filter — filter by origin (customizer, manual, API, etc.)

  • New Quote button — create a manual quote from the dashboard

  • Row actions — View Details, Copy ID, Delete

Each row shows the quote number, contact info, status badge, source label, total price and quantity, revision number, and creation date.

The Quote Detail Page

Click any quote to open a three-column detail view:

Info banner (top) — Key stats at a glance: Quote ID, Status, Total, Quantity, Source, Created, Event Date.

Left column (tabs):

  • Customization — Color swatches, text items with font and placement, graphic thumbnails, pattern configurations

  • Sizing — Size breakdown chips, roster table with player number/name/size/quantity

  • Revisions — Table of all revisions with state badges (active, superseded, draft)

  • History — Append-only timeline of every status change with timestamps and notes

Right column (sidebar cards):

  • Preview & Files — Front/back preview images, product ID, design ID, techpack download link, print file link

Changing Quote Status

On the detail page, the Quote Header displays the current status badge and a Change Status dropdown. The dropdown only shows valid transitions from the current status — you can't skip stages or move backward.

  1. Click the Change Status dropdown

  2. Select the next status

  3. Optionally add a note (e.g., "Pricing confirmed via email")

  4. The status updates and a new entry is added to the History timeline


Revisions

Each quote group can have multiple revisions. Only one revision is active at a time — previous ones are marked as superseded.

Revision State

Meaning

Draft

Being prepared, not yet active

Active

The current version — shown in detail view and used for pricing

Superseded

Replaced by a newer revision

Expired

No longer valid (time-based)

Cancelled

Revision was cancelled

New revisions are created atomically via a database function that locks the group, copies the previous snapshot, sets the new revision as active, and supersedes the old one — all in a single transaction.

Delete Behavior

Deleting a quote group is a hard delete — the group, all its revisions, and the status history are permanently removed. This cannot be undone.

⚠️ Important: Consider moving quotes to cancelled status instead of deleting them. Cancelled quotes preserve the full audit trail for your records.


Tips & Best Practices

  • Respond quickly to submitted quotes — move them to quoted as soon as your team has reviewed the request

  • Use the History tab for audit trails — every status change is logged with a timestamp and optional note

  • Don't skip statuses — the pipeline enforces order for a reason. Each stage represents a distinct business milestone.

  • Use revisions for changes — when a customer wants modifications, create a new revision rather than editing the original

  • Check the Sizing tab for production details — the size breakdown and roster are critical for manufacturing
