Add feature to automatically follow up on quotes / send quote reminder *days before expiry or *days after quote issued — as there is with invoices. This feature comes standard with most other quoting interfaces.

Hi everyone, totally get wanting to get an update from us on the idea here. Having a fair amount of interest from users I can say that Quote reminders are defintiely on the teams radar, however with current focus largely on new invoicing we do not have any immediate plans for this in the next 6 months.

I can assure you, though we mightn't be able to provide updates as frequently as you'd like to see, our product teams are heavily involved in the forums here and our community team often connect to share trends, discuss developments and externally communicate changes that are coming across Xero products. It's important to us to continue developing Xero to streamline payments and help our customers get paid sooner, and your idea here does sit in this realm.

When the teams resources open up and we can consider new development in Quotes like being able to send reminders we'll be happy to share and update you all of this, here.

    This is essential, why isn't this a basic function in 2023?

    We need to monitor sent quotes and follow them up with ease, so an automated quote reminder feature would help with this.

    This is not all that important to my business, but I know it is very important to others and the functionality is already in the system with the invoice reminders.

  • Deborah Webber commented  ·   ·  Report

    With 997 views to date and 334 votes as this being critical functionality I wrote to the Chief Product Officer at Xero twice: Diya.Jolly@xero.com requesting this. I saw my email was read, but received no response. Quite disappointed. This would bring in a lot of extra revenue for businesses. I wish they would hire someone for that role with actual experience in running their own business.

  • Will Carter commented  ·   ·  Report

    I quite often find customers will just forget to accept a quote, and won't remember until we tell them it has expired and needs requoting.

    It's a no-brainer, having automated reminders exactly as the OP said would make the whole process so much more efficient! There's a good reason why almost every online store has the 'you left this in your basket' reminders.

    Please advise the ETA for this basic functionality addition.

  • Erin Rudd commented  ·   ·  Report

    The ability to see if a quote was viewed also would be helpful

  • Charles Bonici Mompalao commented  ·   ·  Report

    It's more manageable for the user to use one software rather than two! Trust that no one would have an issue paying a little extra to save time!

    @ Dana A (Admin, Xero)
    how long does Xero still need to monitor the interest? At what stage or vote numbers are this being taken seriously.

    It has been over an year.

  • Ruth Miles commented  ·   ·  Report

    Exceedingly important - to cut admin time time down - when will this be implemented?

    You can resend quotes in Blue Xero - why not in XPM?

  • Diane Driscoll commented  ·   ·  Report

    We have recently transitioned over to XPM and are looking to send reminders for quotes - but it seems this is not possible. Disappointing to read the comment thread and the fact the functionality just isn't there. Alternative is to do this manually, which is time consuming and the whole reason why we switched to XPM as we believed it would cut down on a significant amount of admin costs. Any idea when this might be implemented please??

  • Jim's Mowing commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please implement this feature soon or I may need to switch software. Thank you.

  • John Roscoe commented  ·   ·  Report

    The ability to delete unwanted quotes, and to have a quote reminder should be implemented together. These are quite fundamental requirements, and we would appreciate some feedback from XERO development team. Is this on the horizon at all, or just another waste of time asking!

  • Pietro Usai commented  ·   ·  Report

    The main issue for us is that now we need to do this and monitor this all manually so it would be a very welcome addition.

  • Michelle Smit commented  ·   ·  Report

    Can't believe nothing has been done to implement this yet. It's clearly a requirement for Xero customers. I still can't believe it wasn't a functionality from day 1.

  • Pietro Usai commented  ·   ·  Report

    For smaller companies with limited resources, it would be great to see some CRM features inside XERO. Follow-up on quoting would be my number 1.
