CCTV Quotations and Bill of Material

A CCTV quotation is part price list and part material count. This module builds one from the survey, keeps each revision, and shows which version the customer finally approved.

What goes on the quotation

Cameras by type

Dome, bullet and PTZ units are listed by model and count, with resolution and whether audio or night range is included.

Recorder, disk and rack

The recorder channel count, the hard disk size and the rack or cabinet. Recording days asked for sit beside them.

Cable and accessories

Cable metres, connectors, baluns, joints, power supplies, conduit, casing and mounting hardware are all counted from the survey sheet rather than guessed at the office desk.

Labour and extras

Fitting charges per camera or per day, ladder or scaffold hire, and civil work such as drilling through a concrete beam.

Terms you set

Advance, balance, warranty wording and the free service period follow your own practice. Taxes are decided with your accountant.

Revisions and approval

Customers add a camera and drop two. Each change creates a new revision, and the office can see who raised it and when. Only one revision is marked approved, and the job card and the invoice are built from that one. A revision that changes the camera count also changes cable metres, connectors and labour days, and the office watches all of that move together. A quotation that goes nowhere is marked lost against its reason, whether price, a competing dealer or a postponed shifting.

Who uses it

Owner

Reads quotations raised, approved and lost, and sets the rate list the office quotes from.

Office and coordinators

Build the quotation, send it out on WhatsApp or email, and follow the approval.

Surveying technician

Supplies the counted positions and cable metres that the quotation is priced on.

What the quotation does not decide

  • Your margins, which stay in the rate list the owner controls
  • Tax treatment of a supply with fitting, which your advisor settles
  • Whether a customer gets credit beyond the agreed balance
  • Brand availability at the distributor on the day of purchase
FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can a quotation be sent as a PDF?

Yes. It prints on your letterhead and goes out over WhatsApp or email from the same screen. A copy stays on the site record.

How many revisions can a quotation carry?

As many as the customer asks for. Every version stays readable, and only one of them is marked approved.

Does it hold separate rates for dealers and retail customers?

Yes. Rate lists can be set by customer type, and the office picks the list when a quotation opens.

Can a lost quotation be reopened?

Yes. If the customer returns months later, the old version is reopened and the reason recorded earlier stays visible.
