Customer-Created Quote Header Fields


You can add custom fields to the header by adding a form element and giving it a name prefixed with "HEADER_". To retrieve the value entered into that field, use the function getQuoteHeader and pass in the name of the field without the "HEADER_" prefix. To add a Notes field onto the header, for example, you would include a new form element and prefill the value with whatever the user had previously entered using the getQuoteHeader function as follows:

<input type="textbox" name="HEADER_NOTES" value="<%= bean.getQuoteHeader("NOTES") %>">

When anything is entered into the HEADER_NOTES field it will automatically be saved with the quote, and the value entered will be shown on the quote by virtue of the getQuoteHeader("NOTES") function call.
