For owners planning the first workflow
See how the work moves through your business.
Choose a workflow, then follow the people and records involved.
Where does the work begin?
Choose a tile
Keep the size, finish and pack details clear.
Review the quantity
Calculate or enter the required amount in its selling unit.
Save the proposal
Review the customer, rate and estimate.
- A clear starting task
- Named team responsibilities
- A visible result to review
Bring the people and starting records into the picture.
A workflow becomes useful when your team can carry it through with its own product details and responsibilities. Choose a small first task that everyone involved can review.
For a showroom quotation
Prepare a recognizable tile, valid pack information, a customer and the quantity or measurements to discuss. Include the person who checks the quotation before it is shared.
For a retailer request
Prepare the retailer’s catalogue and rate assignment. Include both the buyer and the supplier-side person who will review the received details.
For a business running both
Agree which people work in each selling context and which shared product or business records they maintain. Review the first result before broadening the setup.
A CLOSER LOOK
Before you put it
to work.
A few practical questions about this workflow.
Where should a showroom begin?
Prepare a representative tile and customer, check the pack data and rate, then follow one quotation through saving and reopening. Keep quantity review close to the selected product.
Where should a supplier begin?
Prepare one connected retailer’s permitted catalogue and rate assignment. Review a representative request with the person who will handle incoming orders.
What changes when we use both workflows?
The selling context changes while the organization’s shared records remain authoritative. Staff permissions and the stock or payment effects of the chosen transaction still apply.
THE NEXT DECISION
Choose the business workflow before the plan.
Compare Retail, Distribution and the combined arrangement against the work you have just reviewed.
