There is a new File Generation option for the creation of a "new linked file using template". On the Links tab of the Quote WorkBook, when choosing "New file link from template", this new file will be saved with a generated file name based on the macros you define. For example you can set this to "&DH_DocNo_%filebasename%&SYS_TodaysDate" and the file name will look like "AAAQ1001_Managed Services Implementation_Dec-11-2009.rtf"

On the Print window there is a new Links tab. Here you can choose which files to include in the printed output. If you have any RTF files (like your proposals) linked, just put a checkmark next to it and it will be merged into the printed output. If you are emailing the printed output, you can choose which of the linked resources you would like to include as attachments in the email. So if you want to include that Visio drawing in the email to your customer, just put a checkmark next to it.

Improved Proposal support. Using the "Create new linked file using template" feature on the Links tab, you can also create a proposal template and save it in an RTF format. You can design it to look like your proposals. You can create complete proposal type documents containing different font types, sizes, bold, underlining, colors, bulleted lists, tables, etc. These proposal documents are unique to each quote and have their own unique file name (as described in the "File Name Generation Options" feature). These documents can contain QuoteWerks macro fields so that data from the quote is merged into these proposals resulting in the combined output of your manual customization along with the automation of data merging from the quote. Before QuoteWerks version 4.5, there was no way to merge quote data into an RTF document specific to a particular quote.

There is now a "Create new linked file using template" feature on the Links tab, from within the quote, you can easily create a copy of any file and QuoteWerks will automatically give it a file name unique to this quote and will add it to the Links tab. So for example if you have a document template file called "JobCostAndTimeTracking.xls", simply clicking on the "New file link from template" button on the Links tab, QuoteWerks will make a copy of this file and name it, for example, "AAAQ1001_JobCostAndTimeTracking.xls". You are not limited to only one Excel file template either. You can setup as many as you want. You can have ones for different job types. You can create templates for any file type, even a text file like "OpenItemsTODOList.txt".

There is now a Links tab in the Quote WorkBook. Here you can link external files to the quote document. If, for example, you have created a Visio diagram or cad drawing file that is related to this quote, you can simply select these files to add them to this Links tab. You can even drag the files into the Links tab from Windows explorer. It's that easy. With all the external files related to this quote document displayed on the Links tab, finding and opening them to edit or print is so much easier now because you can just open the QuoteWerks quote, and on the Links tab, all of these files are organized for you. No more trying to remember where they are stored or going searching for them. Once you've added a file to the Links tab, you can edit the description of the file so that it is displayed as "Network Architecture Design", rather than as the file name "f:\data\VisioFiles\NetworkDesignForABCCompany.vsd". <br><br> You can also add website links to the Links tab. You can simply drag the website address from your web browser into the Links tab. You can use this to link a package tracking url into the Links tab. Using the description feature you can name the link "UPS tracking for the flat screen TV". Double-clicking on the link launches the web page. You can add as many links as you like. You could also add links to website pages that contain information about the products you are selling whether it be for your internal reference or for your customer's reference.
