Estimate statuses

There are six statuses that can be assigned to an estimate:

  • Draft: You have created the estimate and saved it as a draft.
  • Saved: You have approved the draft but have not yet sent it to a customer.
  • Sent: You have sent the estimate to a customer.
  • Viewed: The customer has viewed the estimate.
  • Converted: You have converted the estimate to an invoice.
  • Expired: The Valid Until date of the estimate has passed.

Expired estimates can be sent to customers and converted to an invoice by
editing the Valid Until date to a future date. Learn how to Edit, delete, or duplicate
an estimate.
