# Quotes

Every quote your supplier has sent you, with its reference, version, date and total — the same documents as the emailed links.

![Quotes](https://projectri.com/docs-shots/portal-quotes.png)

## What it is

A list of the quotes and proposals your supplier has sent you. Each row shows
the title, the reference number, the version when there is more than one, the
date it was sent, the total in its own currency, and where it stands.

## How to get there

**Quotes** in the sidebar. The entry only exists for **primary** and **billing**
contacts — a quote is a price, and a technical or view-only contact does not see
the screen at all.

## How to use it

### Find a quote

1. The list opens with the newest first.
2. Click a row to read the whole document and, if you are the primary contact,
   answer it.

### Reconcile it with an email

1. A quote you were sent a link to and the same quote here are one document, not
   two offers. The note at the foot of the list says so.
2. Answering it in either place answers it in both.

## What it affects

- **Opening a quote records that it was viewed.** Your supplier can see that the
  proposal was opened, whichever door you came through.
- **Accepting commits your company to the price.** See
  [A quote](/docs/portal/quote) for what that means and who can do it.

## On mobile

The phone app has a Quotes screen, reached from the **Account** tab. It is
read-only: you can read the document there, but accepting or declining is done
in a browser — either here or on the link you were sent.

## Limits and gotchas

- Money is shown in the quote's own currency, and different quotes can carry
  different ones. There is no conversion and no combined total.
- The list holds what has been sent to you. Drafts your supplier has not sent
  are not here and cannot be.
