How to Submit a Quote for a Lessen Work Order
Learn how to create and submit a quote for a Lessen Work Order through the Lessen Pro platform.
Overview
When a Lessen Work Order requires additional work beyond the original scope, you can submit a quote directly through Lessen Pro for review and approval by the Lessen team.
Make sure all quote details, pricing, and supporting documentation are accurate before submitting. Once submitted, the quote will be reviewed by the Lessen team for approval.
📋 Note: The quoting process in Lessen Pro follows the same workflow as the Lessen ONE portal. Existing templates, pricing structures, and RES codes can be accessed and used during quote creation to help ensure consistency and faster submission.
