    Approval Notifications

    How you find out when a client opens, approves or rejects a proposal, and what your client receives.

    Know When a Client Responds

    QuickEstimate tells you about client decisions inside the app. There are no notification settings to configure: these alerts are always on.

    This page explains what you see, where, and what your client receives.

    What You See

    When a client signs

    A banner appears at the top of your Dashboard saying a client has signed, with the client and proposal. Click Dismiss once you've seen it. The proposal's status changes to Accepted.

    When a client opens a proposal

    The status changes from Sent to Viewed, and each open is added to the proposal's History with the date and time.

    When a client rejects

    The status changes to Rejected on the Estimates list and the proposal page. Filter the Estimates list by Rejected to see them all.

    When a proposal expires

    The status changes to Expired once the valid-until date passes. Proposals with 7 days or fewer left show "(Nd left)" on the Estimates list.

    What Your Client Receives

    Approval confirmation

    If the client enters their email when they sign, they receive a confirmation email with a link to the signed proposal.

    Optional reminders

    If you turn on Automatic Reminders (Management → Business Settings → Pricing & Tax → Proposal Lifecycle Settings), clients get reminder emails before a proposal expires. They are off by default.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Can I get an email or text when a client approves?

    Not at the moment. Approvals appear as a banner on your Dashboard and as the Accepted status.

    Can I choose which events notify me?

    No. There are no notification settings. Every account sees the same in-app alerts.

    Who on my team sees the alert?

    The Dashboard banner is shown for the whole company, so anyone on your team who opens the Dashboard can see and dismiss it.

    Never Miss a Signed Proposal

    See approvals the next time you open your Dashboard.
