The Quote Table workspace is a network of columns and rows similar to that of a spreadsheet but without the complicated macros and loading time. The column headers are Attributes, the corresponding values of which get pre-populated once a product is added. Each product added to the Quote Table appears as a line item (a row). Only the fields that appear in green are editable while the others are read-only.

3. Price Catalog

The Price Catalog is the list of products available for selling from the price book you chose to create the document. You can search for the product by their name, SKU code or description. You can filter them by Product Type or Product Configuration Type or both to narrow your search. You can view the Quote Table and the Price Catalog simultaneously and hide Price Catalog for a full view of the Quote Table by clicking on its icon in the right pane.

4.4 Base Price

Revv quote table base price

The Base Price refers to the average unit price of the product. For Flat priced and Bundle priced products, the base price is directly displayed in the field.

Note : For Volume, Tier and Stair-Step priced products, the base price depends on the quantity. You have to go choose the quantity in order for the system to calculate the base price.


For Ad-hoc SKU’s, the base price is $0 since the Effort for the Resources needs to be entered in order to calculate the Base Price.

4.5 SKU Quantity & 4.7 SKU UoM

Quote table SKU Quantity

SKU Quantity is the quantity of your SKU (or product) and is measured in the SKU’s unit of measurement (SKU UoM). SKU UoM is a price dimension for your product. If the product only has one price dimension besides the Selling Term UoM but has Tier, Volume, Stair-Step or Bundle price option, the SKU UoM is usually called ‘Pack” and cannot be edited. That is, SKU Quantity cannot be edited and only Quantity can be edited.

4.6 Quantity & 4.9 Quantity UoM

Quantity is also an editable field where you can enter the quantity of your product. This Quantity is measured in the Quantity UoM. If the product is Flat priced and has only one price dimension besides the Selling Term UoM, the Quantity UoM will be empty and Quantity cannot be edited. You can modify quantity in SKU Quantity field.


Revv can accommodate upto 3 price dimensions . Price dimensions simply are the units of measurement that appear with your product. Consider a product called Silver Lining, a software license subscription with a monthly price of $10 per license per month. Here, “license” and “month” are the price dimensions where “month” is the Selling Term UoM and “license” is the SKU UoM. Consider another product, Cloud Burst, a cloud computing platform charged as $0.25 per hour per instance per month. Here, you have two price dimensions for quantity “hour” and “instance” besides the Selling Term UoM being “month”. To put a price to this SKU, you can either modify the number of hours or the number of instances or both, depending on the requirement. For Silver Lining, the SKU UoM is Licence and there is not Quantity UoM. For Cloud Burst, the SKU UoM is Hour and Quantity UoM is Instance. In the Quote Table it will look something like this

5. Grouping

Revv quote table grouping

The Quote Table has an option to segregate the products that you have added into groups. You can either Group them by Product Type, Charge Type or Product Family. You can use this option to provide group discounts rather than individual discounts at the line level. You may also want to present your customer a grouped view of the product mix quoted, for a more professional appearance and show discounts.

6. Discount Types

Revv has 4 types of discounts to help you get more creative with your quotes. You can choose to provide one or more than one type of discount depending on your requirements.

  1. Line Item Discount: This the the basic discount that you can offer on a line item level and corresponds to the column Discount Percentage. This discount is calculated over the Extended Base Price.

  2. Additional Line Item Discount: If you’d like to give a further discount to an already discounted line item, you can use the corresponding Additional Discount field. This discount is calculated on the Discounted Price for that line item.

  3. Group Discount: This discount type is used on a Group Level. If you’d like to give discount to an entire group rather than on individual line items, simply group the quote table and apply a Group Discount. It is applied on the Group Total, which is the total of the Net Price of the items in that group.

  4. Quote Discount: This discount type is for the entire quote and is applied on the Quote Total. The Quote Total is the total of Net Price of all the items in the deal table. If you’ve applied a Group Discount, then the Quote Total is the sum-total of all groups , inclusive of the group discount.
