Generating a Customer Proposal 

Learn how to generate, review, and send a customer proposal from an estimate in One Click Contractor, including managing cover photos and regenerating proposals after changes.

Article Introduction

In One Click Contractor, a Customer Proposal is generated directly from an existing estimate. The proposal pulls together pricing, descriptions, options, photos, discounts, payment terms, and product brochures into a single professional document for the customer.

Proposals always reflect the current state of the estimate. If changes are made to the estimate after a proposal is created, the proposal must be regenerated to ensure accuracy.

  2. Select the Estimates tab.
