Quotes
Overview
Manage all components for cost and revenue estimates.
Quotes are detailed estimates that outline the terms and logistics for transporting goods from one location to another. For customers, this represents revenue, and for partner carriers, it represents the cost. Rose Rocket has the functionality for managing all components of quotes as the first object in the end-to-end quote-to-cash lifecycle.
Depending on your organization, quotes act as revenue or costs. This relationship highlights the organizational role in your Rose Rocket workflow.
- Customer quotes for shippers, partner, and brokers - Revenue coming in
- Partner quotes for brokers - Cost of business
