Creating a Quote for a New Network
After adding records for all the locations of network nodes, the salesperson can create a quote for the new network. Later, the salesperson attaches all the components of the new network to this quote. For more information about creating a quote, see Siebel Order Management Guide. This task is a step in Process of Ordering New Networks. To create a quote for a new network
- Navigate to the Accounts screen, then the Accounts List view.
- In the Accounts list, click the name of the appropriate account.
The Customer Portal view appears.
- In the Installed Assets list, click New.
If the account type is not Residential, then the Line Item view of the Quotes screen appears.
