How to Use My Quotes

If you request quotes from Hydraulic Supply, My Quotes keeps every one of them in a single place inside your account. Review pricing, check a quote’s status, download or print a copy, accept a quote and check out, and pick up the conversation with our team — all online, whenever it’s convenient.

Here’s how to use it, step by step.

What you can do with My Quotes

• See every quote in one place — each quote and its current status in one list.
• Review the details — line items, quantities, and pricing, including any negotiated changes.
• Download or print a copy — save a PDF or print a clean copy to share internally.
• Accept and check out — turn an approved quote into an order in a couple of clicks.
• Keep the conversation on record — comment on a quote and see the full history in one thread.

How to use My Quotes, step by step

Step 1 — Create a quote from your cart

Add the items you need to your cart, then choose Convert to Quotation. This sends your request to our team and creates a quote you can track in your account.

Step 2 — Open My Quotes in your account

Log in and open your account dashboard, then select My Quotes — you’ll find it in your account menu alongside My Orders.

Step 3 — Review your quote list

Your quote list shows each quote’s ID, the date it was created, its expiration date, its status, and the subtotal. Search by quote ID, sort by any column, and export the whole list to CSV — helpful if you manage a high volume of quotes.

Step 4 — Open a quote to see the details

Select any quote to open its detail view. Each line item shows the original quantity and price next to the current quantity and price, so it’s easy to see exactly what changed. You’ll also see the quote’s status and how much time is left before it expires.

Step 5 — Comment on a quote

Have a question or a change to request? Add a comment right on the quote. Your comment and our replies are saved in the quote’s Comment History, so the full back-and-forth stays in one place.

How you’ll know when we’ve responded

You’ll receive an email whenever your quote’s status changes — including when we’ve reviewed it and it’s ready for you to accept. You can also open My Quotes anytime: the status updates in your list, and any reply from our team appears in the quote’s Comment History.

How to accept a quote and place your order

Once our team has reviewed your quote, its status changes to Awaiting Acceptance and we’ll email you. Open the quote and choose Accept & Checkout to turn it into an order and complete your purchase — or Reject it if it no longer works for you.

How to download or print a copy of your quote

There are two easy ways to get a copy:

• From an individual quote: open the quote and click Download PDF in the Options area to save a clean copy you can print or share.
• From your quote list: click the print icon in the Actions column of any quote row to print it directly.

Actions you can take on a quote

Depending on a quote’s status, you can:

• View — open the full quote detail.
• Accept & Checkout — approve a quote and turn it into an order (once we’ve marked it Awaiting Acceptance).
• Download PDF — save or share a clean copy (from the quote detail).
• Print — print a quote directly from your quote list.
• Duplicate — start a new quote from a past one for a fast re-quote or reorder.
• Update — request changes to quantities or items.
• Reject — decline a quote you no longer need.
• Export to CSV — download your quote list (or a quote’s line items) as a spreadsheet.

FAQs

How long is a quote valid?

Quotes are valid for 40 days from the day you create them. Your quote list and the quote’s detail view show the exact expiration date and a countdown of the time remaining; once it passes, the status changes to Expired.

What do the quote statuses mean?

• Pending Response — we’ve received your quote and are reviewing it.
• Awaiting Acceptance — we’ve reviewed it; it’s ready for you to Accept & Checkout or Reject.
• Expired — the quote passed its 40-day window.
• Rejected — the quote was declined, either by you or by our team.

How do I turn a quote into an order?

When a quote’s status is Awaiting Acceptance, open it and click Accept & Checkout to complete your purchase. See “How to accept a quote and place your order” above.

Can I change a quote after it’s created?

Yes. Open the quote and use Update to request changes to quantities or items, or add a comment describing what you need. Our team will review and respond.

What’s the difference between the original and current price?

On a quote’s detail view, each line shows the original quantity and price alongside the current quantity and price, so you can see exactly what changed from your initial request.

Can I reorder from a past quote?

Yes — use Duplicate to start a new quote from a previous one. It’s a quick way to re-quote or reorder items you buy regularly.

Who can see my quotes?

Your quotes are private to your login — only you can see the quotes created under your account.

How do I get a PDF copy of a quote?

Open the quote and click Download PDF. See “How to download or print a copy of your quote” above.
