When there is no suggested price

Why a quotation line has no suggestion, or only limited evidence — and what to do.

A suggested price only appears when RABT has evidence. Here are the common reasons it is missing or marked Limited evidence.

No suggestion at all

  • The line is not a product. Suggestions need a product from your product list.
  • No history, no list price and no cost. The customer has never bought the product, the product has no list price, and no cost is recorded. Add a list price or a cost to the product.
  • Different currency. The customer's history, or the product's list price and cost, are in another currency. RABT does not convert currencies, so that evidence is not used.
  • No customer chosen yet. Choose the customer first.

Limited evidence

  • Bought once. One purchase is shown as "Based on one purchase only". Use it with care.
  • Limited history. A small number of purchases gives a less reliable picture.

A note instead of a price change

  • Unusual quantity. If the quantity is well above or well below what the customer usually orders, RABT notes that volume may justify a different price, or that their usual price may not apply.
  • Cost not recorded. The suggestion can still appear, but the margin cannot be checked.

Making suggestions more useful

  • Import your sales history so customers have purchases to learn from.
  • Record new orders, or convert accepted quotations into orders.
  • Add list prices and costs to your products.
