Here's a quick walk-through of the Dashboard your Carrier Reps will use.
Opportunities
Each time you send out a quote request, it falls under Opportunities. The carrier clicks here to see open quotes to bid on.
Here is an example of what is being asked to quote on, and the options for them to fill out / reply with.
Currently Quoting
Once a rate is submitted for a quote, the Opportunity moves under Currently Quoting. We will auto-sort these by Lowest bid.
Please keep in mind that you have a setting available for you to toggle the Green and Red arrows off the carrier side under App Settings
Sharing Opportunities
Carrier reps can forward the quote request to other folks via email at their company, a common occurrence when a distro-email is used.
