Uploading source files while creating a quote is not obligatory. However, we recommend that you do not skip this step. Having the source document in the quote helps to identify the order, calculate the receivables, and find the vendors willing to undertake this particular job.

To add a file to the quote, perform the following steps:

a. Drag the file to the Files card, or click the Add Files button and select the file on your local machine.

b. In the Add files pop-up window, specify the Category of the file and its Language.
