## Where to find it

In the conversation with Dri, about the quote that is open in that conversation: the
one she just built or the one you are working on. You say the change in
text or by audio and she saves it straight to the quote, without opening the screen.
With no quote open there is nothing to change: build the quote first.

The terms are the ones in the quote's **header**, the same ones you adjust on the
quote screen: payment method, payment terms, freight, delivery, notes and the others
listed below. Items are not covered here: changing an item or a quantity is something
else (see [Build a quote by text on WhatsApp](/en/ajuda/montar-cotacao-por-texto-no-whatsapp)).

## The terms you can change in the conversation

There are ten, and a few ways to ask for each:

- **payment method**: *"change the payment method to boleto"*, *"switch
  to pix"*, *"billing is boleto BB"*;
- **payment terms**: *"change the payment terms to 30/60/90"*, *"make it cash"*, *"28-day
  terms"*;
- **note**: *"add to the note: deliver in the morning"*, *"delete the
  note"*;
- **freight**: *"change the freight to FOB"*, *"CIF freight"*;
- **carrier**: *"switch the carrier to Braspress"*, *"no
  carrier"*;
- **delivery forecast**: *"the delivery forecast is 20/09"*;
- **customer's purchase order**: *"the customer's PO is 4512"*;
- **freight cost**: *"the freight costs R$ 150"*;
- **price table**: *"use the wholesale table"*, *"go back to the standard table"*;
- **order discount**: *"give a 5% discount"*, *"remove the discount"*.

Each saved change comes back confirmed with ✅ and the new value, for example
**✅ Payment terms: 30/60/90.** When the change affects the price (payment terms, table or
discount), the reply also shows the new total and the previous one, on the **💵
Total:** line.

## Say the value the way you would speak it

Send the value the way you say it: *"boleto"*, *"30/60/90"*. You do not need to know the
code or the exact registered name: Dri searches among the options that store's
screen offers.

- **Only one option matched**: she saves it.
- **More than one matched**: she sends back the options **numbered** and asks which one.
  Reply with the number or with the option's full name.
- **None matched**: she says she did not find it and lists some options that exist,
  as in *I didn't find "check" among this store's payment methods. There is: …*

If you only name the term, without the value (*"change the carrier"*), she
asks for the value, for example **Which carrier?** or **What payment terms? (e.g.:
30/60/90, 28 days, cash)**.

## Several terms in the same message

You can ask for more than one at once, with the quote already open in the conversation:
*"payment terms 30/60/90 and payment by boleto BB"*, *"FOB freight and carrier
Braspress"*. Dri applies all of them, in the order you said them, and replies in a
single message, one line per term.

- If one of them is ambiguous, she applies the others and **asks only about
  that one**, always last in the reply.
- If two are ambiguous, she asks about the last one and names the other on a line
  such as **⚠️ The payment method still needs to be chosen. Tell me and I'll adjust it.**
- One message applies at most six terms. Anything beyond that is not
  applied and is named: **⚠️ I didn't touch … in this message. Send it again and
  I'll adjust it.**

## Terms written with the items

It depends on the moment: in the message that creates the quote, payment terms, payment method and freight
go in; with the quote already open, items and terms need separate
messages.

**In the message that creates the quote**, write the payment terms, the payment method and the
freight together with the items (*"terms 30/45/60, boleto, CIF"*) and they go into the
quote that is created. Payment terms or a payment method Dri did not understand become
an issue for you to check on the quote, and a field locked in the
customer's record keeps the record's value. The details are in [Build a quote by text on WhatsApp](/en/ajuda/montar-cotacao-por-texto-no-whatsapp).

Two things written with the items do not go in at creation:

- **the discount on the whole order** (*"50% on everything"*): after the quote
  comes out, send *"give a 50% discount"*;
- **terms written in a photo's caption**, EXCEPT payment terms and discount:
  in some accounts Dri reads those two from the caption (or from the message right before the
  photo) and applies them to the quote the photo generates. Payment method,
  carrier, freight and note still go in a message afterwards. See
  [A quote from a photo, PDF or spreadsheet on WhatsApp](/en/ajuda/cotacao-por-foto-pdf-e-planilha).

⚠️ **With the quote already open, do not mix terms and items in the same sentence.**
*"Add 3 boxes of AB10009 and change the terms to 30/60"* combines two different
actions, and only one of them is carried out; the other is left out without warning. Send
the item in one message and the terms in another.

## Payment method and payment terms

The **payment method** follows what your store's screen shows. In a store whose
order goes to the ERP with the billing method, the list is the billing methods
registered in that store's ERP. In other stores, it is Vendria's standard list of payment
methods. A store with more than one ERP connection does not have a single
list: there Dri asks you to choose on screen.

The **payment terms** accept days separated by slashes, cash and a down payment: *30*,
*30/60/90*, *DOWN PAYMENT + 30/60*, *28 days*. Text that does not turn into payment terms is
refused: *Payment condition '…' is not a payment schedule the ERP
can save.* The screen refuses the same text, with a different sentence. Since payment terms can change the price, the
reply shows the new total when it changed.

## The note has a type and a mode

The quote has more than one note box, and each one has a reader:

- **Order note**: the customer sees it;
- **Internal note**: only the team sees it;
- **Billing note**: goes to the order in the ERP. It only exists in stores
  whose integration receives that field.

If you only say *"note"*, Dri asks which box, with the options
that quote's screen shows. Say it directly to skip the question:
*"internal note: customer asked for urgency"*.

The default **mode** is to **append** to what is already written. To replace the whole
text, say *"replace the note with…"*; to clear it, *"delete the
note"*. A text that would go over the size the box accepts is refused
whole, instead of being cut in the middle.

## Freight, carrier and delivery

The **freight** accepts the options your store's screen shows: **CIF**, **FOB** and
**CIF/FOB (transshipment)** in stores whose ERP has that freight mode; **CIF** or
**FOB** in stores with a TOTVS ERP; in the others, the invoice's freight modes.
Transshipment only exists where the store's ERP offers it.

The **carrier** comes from the store's list of carriers; *"no
carrier"* removes whichever one is on the quote. The **delivery forecast** accepts
the date the way you say it (*"20/09"*) and comes back confirmed with the year, as **✅
Delivery forecast: 20/09/2026.**

In some stores the delivery forecast or the freight cost are not kept on the
quote, because the ERP order does not receive them. In those cases Dri warns you instead
of saving.

## The discount here is for the whole order

The discount field is the **manual discount** on the whole document, as a
percentage, between 0 and 100. A discount on **one item** is not this term:
adjust it on the line, on screen.

If your store has a discount cap for the seller, a discount that goes over
it is refused and the reply says why. Only what goes beyond the quote's automatic
discount counts, added to the discount already given on the items. The cap is
set by the administrator (see [Desconto máximo do vendedor: o teto de concessão por loja](/ajuda/desconto-maximo-do-vendedor)).

*"Remove the discount"* removes the manual discount and replies **✅ I removed the manual
discount.**

## When Dri does not change the term

- **There is no quote open in the conversation**: *There's no quote open in this conversation
  for me to adjust. Build the quote and then tell me what to change.*
- **The quote is no longer a draft** (confirmed, rejected, canceled): *That
  quote is no longer a draft, so its terms can't change anymore.*
- **The quote expired**: *That quote expired. Open the quote and change what
  you need: it goes back to draft and the next send goes out with a new validity period.* See
  [The quote's validity period, and what happens when it expires](/en/ajuda/prazo-e-vencimento-da-cotacao).
- **The proposal is with the customer**: *The proposal is with the customer. Open the
  quote and change it there: it goes back to editing and the sent version stops
  being valid.* See [Edit a sent proposal: reopen, revise and resend](/en/ajuda/retomar-uma-proposta-enviada).
- **The value was already that**: she says it was already like that and saves nothing.
- **The discount came in the message that created the quote**: it is not read. Send the
  discount in a message after the quote comes out.

## What is NOT an order term

- **Changing the customer**: that is choosing a customer (*"it's for Casa Modelo"*), and it recalculates
  the document's discount. See [Choose the conversation's customer on WhatsApp](/en/ajuda/escolher-o-cliente-na-conversa).
- **Changing the quantity or the product of an item**: that is working on the item.

## Common questions

**Does the discount I ask for apply to the item or to the order?** To the whole
order.

**I asked for payment terms and payment method in the same message and only one changed. Why?** Check
whether the reply has a question at the end: the ambiguous term is waiting for your choice.
If the sentence also asked for an item on an already open quote, send the terms
again, on their own.

**I wrote the payment terms with the items in the order. Do they go in?** Yes, if it was in the
message that created the quote. Without an identified customer, the creation reply
does not show the **💳** line with the terms: check the quote. With the quote
already open, send the payment terms in a separate message.

**If I say I prefer boleto 28 days, does it apply to the next quotes?**
No. The term applies to the quote open in the conversation. With no quote open,
build the quote first. Each customer's default is in their record (see
[Ficha do cliente: editar dados e padrões comerciais](/ajuda/ficha-do-cliente-dados-e-padroes-comerciais)).

**Can I answer the numbered question with the name?** Yes, with the number or with the
option's full name.
