Converting Proposals

A Proposal created for a Prospect and/or a Subscriber which is being Converted to an Installation Order or Converted to an Invoice now provides (in the Proposal Conversion Information dialog) the options to:

Convert Rec Revenue? - Check this box to have any proposed Recurring Items identified as Recurring Revenue converted to Auto Billing entry(s).
Convert Rec Service? - Check this box to have any proposed Recurring Items identified as Recurring Service converted to Auto Service entry(s).
If this Inventory (Sale-Purchase) Item is included in a Proposal and subsequently converted to a Job, the Retail Price information on the Inventory (Sale-Purchase) Item is included in the Job Estimate tab.

 

To eliminate the request to convert these Recurring Items, set the DeferRecurringRevenue option in the Company Settings Form to True ("T").
