About documents

Documents, also referred to as bid documents, are the printed representation of a quote or an order. They contain details about the products that have been added to a quote or order. Documents can include important information such as pricing, payment terms, and configuration details for configured items.

When you generate a bid document, you can specify the information that you want to show or hide in the document. Print options are described in these tables:

If None is selected, and you also choose to show all information for configuration details, the prices of configured items are displayed.
