About the Quotation
A quotation is the document that converts a conversation into a priced commitment. It has to state exactly what is included, what it costs, and how long the price holds. OpenDocuHub compiles that document in the browser - no account, no upload, no watermark.
Set an expiration date, add line-item discounts, and export a vector PDF with an acceptance signature block your client can sign and return. Everything is calculated in integer cents, so the totals in the PDF match the totals on screen to the penny.
Validity window defaults to issue date + 30 days, adjustable to 15, 45, 60 or a custom date.
Line-item discounts by percent or flat amount with an itemized tax breakdown.
Optional shipping, handling and multi-rate tax lines with a totals ledger.
Acceptance signature block and terms area, exported as true vector type.

Questions about quotation
Is a quotation legally binding?
A quotation becomes binding when the client accepts it on the stated terms - usually by signing the acceptance block or issuing a purchase order that references the quote number. Until then it is an offer, not an obligation.
How long should a quote stay valid?
Thirty days is the commercial default and the setting OpenDocuHub applies automatically. Trade contractors pricing volatile materials often shorten it to 15 days; long-lead manufacturing quotes may hold for 60 or 90.
Can I convert a quote into an invoice?
Yes. The conversion carries the reference number, client details, currency, line items, quantities, unit prices and tax rates into the invoice, and derives the payment due date from the client's saved payment terms.
Does the exported PDF have a watermark?
No. Exports are unwatermarked vector PDFs built with pdf-lib in your browser. There is no server round trip and no promotional stamp on the document.
