You must send an email to the Payer via the mail button (orange), which will automatically change the Quote Status to “Sent”.

  • NOTE: The PDF icon includes a default Quote template you can download and send via your own email, however, emailing from SELMA allows you to choose from a communication template you have customised, previously.

Once you’ve sent the email, the Quote Status will automatically change to “Sent”. Once the Organisation accepts the Quote, you should come back and change the Quote status to “Accepted”, manually.

  • Note: There is a default invoice template, accessible through the PDF button, however, you can request SELMA support to create a custom one for you.
