Introduction
In addition to the individual selection of products via the product search, you also have the option of loading existing opportunity products into a new quote or using an existing quote as a template, which of course also includes the products it contains.
Both options save you time in your daily work and enable transparent versioning of quotes. If a quote is used as a template, it is also easier if changes to texts and images are also transferred to the new version.
Overview and product selection
After selecting an existing quote as a template or clicking the "Transfer Copy products from opportunity" button, a window opens in the editor with an overview of all products to be transferred, including the most important quote columns in appero quote:

Special case sum discount
Sum discounts are also displayed in the product overview with the associated Discount Produkt. Deselecting an existing summary discount may make sense when syncing from the opportunity under certain circumstances, e.g. if the summary sum discount element item is hard-coded into the template and the discount is calculated automatically via a discount matrixDiscount Matrix. In this case, if you deselect the product in the preview, you will prevent the total discount from being duplicated in the quote after the opportunity products are taken over.
Takeover of the existing products
Click on "OK" to start the automatic product transfer:
