When a wholesale buyer accepts a quote, the order should carry the negotiated line prices exactly, or stop with a clear variance flag before anything posts. Week one on Parcel Build is that first working version: lock on convert for known accounts, without a full CPQ or audit platform. You own the code. Flat monthly. See custom software for wholesalers. If quote price lock on convert is the gap, start a free 30-day build.
What price-lock checks belong on week-one quote-to-order convert (and what can wait)?
Week one can cover a convert that copies accepted line prices onto the order, plus a stop when a line no longer matches. The buyer and sales both see which SKU drifted. Enterprise CPQ rule engines, tax and freight productization, and full immutable audit products can wait until lock-on-convert earns its keep.
Why rekeying accepted quotes into orders creates silent price drift and finance disputes
Someone copies an accepted quote into an order by hand. A list price moved. A discount did not carry. The order posts at a number the buyer never agreed to. Finance finds the variance after the fact. The buyer already planned on the quoted total.
The dispute is silent drift. The quote was accepted. The order did not keep those prices.
What week one can cover
Accepted line prices that carry onto the order. A variance flag when a SKU, quantity, or price no longer matches. A stop before post so the convert cannot silently change the deal. A human path to accept a new price or hold the original when that is allowed.
On Parcel Build, week one is a first working version of that path. Flat monthly. You own the code.
What stays out of month one
Defer enterprise CPQ rule engines. Defer tax and freight productization as the primary job. Defer full immutable audit products. Month one is lock on convert for known accounts, with a clear flag when something no longer matches.
FAQ
Is price lock the same as quote expiration or quote revision history?
No. Price lock is whether accepted line prices carry onto the order, or stop with a variance flag. Expiration is the validity window and the block after that date. Revision history is how line changes are tracked over time. They can live together later. Week one can prove lock on convert without cloning expiration or a full revision timeline.
Does week one need automatic ERP price refresh on every convert?
No. Week one can lock the accepted quote prices and flag a mismatch. Automatic price refresh on every convert can wait until the lock path is earning its place.
