Features

If a quotation has been created for a service order, you can

No longer perform a selection of contracts
Only create pro forma items or invoices

If a service order makes reference to a contract, you can no longer create a quotation.
Planned costs are not considered.

If you copy a service product into the quotation, the quotation price corresponds to the price of the service product.

You can either achieve this by copying the planned costs in the sales price basis at 0% into the quotation, or by assigning a dynamic item processor profile (DIP profile), that does not determine any costs in the event of a quotation (meaning that you do not specify a source for costs in the DIP profile).

The customer is billed for the actual expenses incurred.

The service order is revenue-bearing and contains the revenues during billing.
