The Search for Quotes screen is called by the Search button on the Quotes screen.
It is basically the same as the Search for Orders screen, except that only a limited number of fields on the screen will be active.
Fields such as Actual Ship Date and Item Status will be grayed out, since they do not apply to a quote.
If the quote is eventually converted to an order, then those fields would be applicable and active.
Use this screen to locate a quote or group of quotes by the criteria entered at this screen.
