A quotation assistant can interpret a request and prepare a draft, but it should not become the authority on prices.

Product interpretation, price retrieval, and commercial approval are different jobs. Mixing them can turn an uncertain guess into a promise.

Retrieve current prices from an authoritative record, and show uncertain product matches rather than filling gaps with plausible numbers.

Bind commercial approval to the exact quote version. Recheck it when products, quantities, discounts, or other commercial details change.

Test ambiguous requests before routine ones. A useful assistant exposes uncertainty so an authorized person can approve the actual offer.
