simPRO API Forum

Does a quote isVariation flag changes from True to False when the quote is successfully converted to a job?

For example - client on Simpro creates a Quote Variation. The quote has an isVariation flag of TRUE
But when the quote successfully converts, it creates a job which is marked as True for isVariation
But the quote's IsVariation flag is now returning as False

Is this expected behaviour? My client wants to monitor how many of their variation quotes they are doing, but this number decreases when the quote is converted.?

The only scenario where is see that the Quote retains the IsVariation flag is if it is converted to a recurring job (or when it's not converted at all)

Hi Amy,

If this is something that is occurring within the Simpro application itself then I would direct you towards raising a ticket with our support team, and they can verify if this is expected behaviour or not and raise an issue within the designated channels of communication if need be.

However, please let me know if this is something that is unique to the REST API itself, and I will ensure to escalate this issue within the API Team.

Cheers,
