Prerequisites

  • A Scopable tenant-admin account with permission to manage tenant settings

Quote Designer controls how Scopable presents a quote to your client. Tenant administrators can manage shared branding, create reusable templates, choose a tenant default, and select a different template for an individual quote.

Open Settings, then select Quote Designer. The landing page contains your tenant logo and quote colors plus a gallery of saved templates.

The gallery marks the tenant default and keeps template creation and editing actions together.

What a template controls

Each template has three parts:

  • Cover page: an optional designed first page for the quote title, logo, client details, and introductory copy.
  • Quote content: flowing sections for the summary, line items, scope, totals, payment terms, notes, and other live quote data.
  • Closing page: an optional designed final page for contact details or a closing message.

Cover and closing blocks use fixed placement. Quote-content sections flow onto additional pages as the quote grows, which keeps long scopes and line-item tables readable.

The designer stores presentation rules, not a second copy of the quote. Bound fields and content sections pull current information from the quote when Scopable renders it.

How Scopable chooses a template

Every tenant has a default-template path. A saved quote can also name a specific Quote Designer template.

  1. If the quote has a specific template selected, Scopable uses it.
  2. Otherwise, Scopable uses the tenant default.

The selected layout is used for the client-facing quote and generated PDF. Keeping the selection and fallback explicit prevents a quote from silently depending on whichever template someone happened to edit last.

See Select a template for a quote for the quote-level workflow and fallback details.

Common tasks

Safe operating habits

  • Preview with representative sample data before saving.
  • Test with a real quote that has long titles, a detailed scope, and several line items before changing the tenant default.
  • Duplicate a working template before a major redesign.
  • Keep at least one suitable default template available.
  • Do not place passwords, API keys, or other secrets in template copy or support screenshots.

Getting help

Email [email protected] with the template name, affected quote, what you expected, and screenshots of both the editor and rendered result. Remove sensitive quote content and never send client credentials.
