Convert Customer Order Back to Quote

Revert an active Customer Order to Quote status when a customer changes their mind or a quote was activated in error.

There are situations where a dealership needs to convert an active Customer Order back to a Quote — for example, if a Customer Order was activated by mistake, or if a customer initially agreed to proceed but then changed their mind and the dealership wants to preserve the quoted prices on record.

How It Works

Every Customer Order has a Set as a quote toggle. When this toggle is OFF, the record is an active Customer Order. To revert it to a Quote, turn the toggle back ON.

For example, if a Customer Order was activated in error, turning the Set as a quote toggle back to ON converts it back to Quote status.

Exceptions: When a Customer Order Cannot Be Reverted

There are several situations where an active Customer Order cannot be changed back to a Quote. Reverting is blocked when any of the following conditions apply:

  • A deposit has been receipted against the Customer Order.

  • Items have been paid for and checked out, and an Invoice has been issued.

  • Line items in the Special Order section have been ordered or received. All Special Order line items must have the status REQUIRED — meaning no Vendor Order (VO) has been submitted or received for them — before the Customer Order can revert to a Quote.

  • Technician Job Clocking entries have been processed in the Service Job section of the Customer Order.

  • For a Customer Order that includes a Unit Deal, the Unit Deal must still have a status of QUOTE.
