Buy Lists: Streamline Your Purchasing with Requisition Lists

Company Structure Overview

Using a requisition list helps you save time by allowing you to add frequently ordered products directly to your shopping cart. GrowGeneration’s requisition lists let you manage multiple lists based on vendors, teams, campaigns, or any other categories that enhance your workflow.

Why Use a Requisition List?

  • Reusable: A requisition list remains intact after sending items to the cart, so it can be used multiple times.

Quotes are created and managed through the following process:

  1. Quote Creation: A buyer can populate the shopping cart or build a quote directly from product pages. Once ready, select Submit Quote for Review, enter the quote name, and optionally add comments or attachments.
  2. Quote Submission: Upon submission, the quote request appears in the buyer’s My Quotes list, and an email notification is sent to the assigned sales representative.

Managing Your Quotes

Once a quote has been submitted, buyers can manage the ongoing negotiation process from their account dashboard.

  • Notifications are sent via email and in the "notifications" area whenever the quote is updated by the sales rep.
  • Select View under the Actions column to open and review the quote.
  • Review any discounts offered by the sales rep, such as a percentage discount off the list price. Buyers can either proceed with the quote or submit it back for further negotiation.

Interacting with Your Quote

Additional actions can be taken once the quote is received back from the sales representative:

  • Leave a Note: Add comments on individual items or on the overall quote.
  • Proceed to Checkout: If satisfied with the quote, click Proceed to Checkout at the bottom of the page.
  • Important Notes: Changing item quantities or the shipping address will require further review by your sales rep before checkout can proceed. Changing the shipping address during checkout will void the quoted pricing.
