Good ideas, but the problem that I sometimes run into, especially with overseas cusomers is that they try to hold you to the estimated ship date on the quote, even when they send you the PO the day before. Right now, I put a date in the quote and then use the notes to annotate the lead time. It would be simpler if instead of putting in a date (although this does make converting the quote easier from a DB standpoint), you could say somehing like 2 week ARO (after receipt of order). Another option I am considering is converting the quote to PDF (which is normally the format we use when we email them), and editing it (we have Acrobat).
