Make an estimate and send it for an electronic signature (SMS method)

After you make an estimate for a client, you can send it to the client with an SMS message directly from ezyVet.

  • Make sure that ezyVet has an enabled SMS module
  • Make sure that ezyVet has an SMS template with correct configuration for remote signatures
    Note: The SMS template is applicable to step 13 of this procedure.
To make an estimate and send it, do this procedure.
Note: As an alternative to this procedure, you can make an estimate and use email to send it to a client to accept. For more information, refer to the applicable documentation.

    Note: Use the Low qty box to enter the minimum quantity of the product that you think is necessary for the client. And use the High qty box to enter the maximum quantity of the product that you think is necessary for the client.
    When you enter quantity values in the boxes:
    1. ezyVet automatically calculates the minimum possible price of the line item and shows the price in the Low total column
