Table of Contents

On the start page of the appero quote setup app, you already have access to two essential elements of your configuration: quote templates and clients or styles.

Quote templates


Quote templates ensure legally and substantively consistent quotes and significantly reduce the time spent by individual users.


In the "appero quote settings" - menu item "Templates" all quote templates can be managed and activated or deactivated. A click on the respective record opens the corresponding record page and allows editing the template in the quote editor.

The configuration of each template is described in Angebotsdokument → Angebotsvorlagen.


Styles

appero quote is multi-client capable. This means that several companies with different business addresses and individual stationery can use the quote editor in the same Salesforce environment. In the Styles tab you have access to the existing clients and thus the possibility to store stationery files and your CSS styles

The stationery for the cover page and the following pages can be stored for each client. In addition, an editor is available for editing the so-called CSS style sheet. This can be used to influence all formatting of the quote - including colors, sizes and spacing. 

You can enter the following values at the client

FieldFieldnameFunction

NameUnder the style name you can select the client later in the template dialog.

SF42_Custom_CSS__c

In the Custom CSS field you store your CSS definition. More details hier.

SF42_HideSenderaddress__c

Controls the visibility of the sender address .

A sender line can thus be displayed above the recipient's address, which is usually used when sending with window envelopes. Company name, street, postal code and city are taken from the master data.

F42_IsActive__cOnly active clients can be selected in the Layout area.

SF42_IsStandard__cMarks a client as default.


An active client is assigned to a quote template via the master data dialog.

Note

Even if you want to use only one offer layout, please create a client for this purpose to be able to maintain your CSS and stationery.

Stationery

Below the CSS section you can store the stationery of the cover page as well as the following pages:



Recommendations for the background graphics: 


Full-page backgrounds should have a minimum size of 794x1123 pixels at a resolution of 72 dpi.


Note

We recommend a DIN A4 template with a resolution between 150 and a maximum of 300 dpi to ensure a qualitatively appealing presentation.


File- formatmax. file sizeNote
PNG100 KBSuitable for backgrounds with few different colors
JPG100 KB

The output compression quality setting, if text is included, should not be less than 70%.


The file size of a stationery graphic must not exceed 100 KB so that the upload works smoothly. At the same time, this keeps the file size of the quote document manageable.

Further settings for the quote layout and stationery can be found in the corresponding Einstellungen.

Signatures

Signatures of the users are stored at the object User in the field "Signature URL" SF42_SignatureURL01__c and can be displayed in the field "Signature Preview" SF42_SignaturePreview01__c. In the Classic Setup of appero quote, you can also upload the signature graphics directly in the Signatures area.

The signature of the respective Salesforce user is then read dynamically in the quote editor via the Signatures element. The size of the graphics is automatically adjusted if this is stored accordingly in the CSS stylesheet of the client.
