Quotation Generator

Create a professional price quotation with line items and validity date.

About the Quotation Generator

A quotation is the first document a prospective customer sees before committing to buy — it needs to look professional enough to build confidence while making the price and scope unambiguous. This generator produces a clean, itemised quotation from your business details, customer name, and a simple line-item list, ready to send or print.

Enter each item as a single line — description, quantity, rate — and the generator computes line totals and the grand total automatically, formatted as a clean aligned table. Add a validity date so the customer knows the quoted prices aren't open-ended, which protects you if your costs change before they decide.

A quotation is explicitly not a tax invoice — it's an estimate, and the generated document says so clearly to avoid any confusion with your GST records. Once the customer accepts, convert it to a proper invoice using the invoice generator linked below.

Number your quotations sequentially just as you would invoices (QUOT-001, QUOT-002…) so you can track how many convert to actual sales over time — that conversion rate is a useful, easy-to-track business metric that most small businesses never bother measuring even though it's sitting right there in their sent-quotes folder.

Keep a copy of every quotation you send, even the ones that don't convert — a customer who declines this time may come back months later referencing the price you quoted, and having it on hand avoids an awkward renegotiation from scratch.

Frequently asked questions

Is a quotation the same as an invoice?
No — a quotation is a price estimate before a sale is confirmed; an invoice is a demand for payment for a completed sale and has GST/tax implications a quotation doesn't. Don't record quotations in your books as sales.
Why should I add a validity date?
Prices, especially for materials or services with variable costs, can change. A validity date protects you from being held to an old quote after your costs have moved, and creates gentle urgency for the customer to decide.
How do I format the line items?
One item per line, comma-separated: description, quantity, rate — for example "Website design, 1, 25000". The generator computes each line's amount and the grand total automatically.
