In order to start a New Project, simply search for the first plant on your list using the search bar at the top of the website. Once you have found the correct plant and selected the correct container size, you will then be given the option to add this plant to a new quote or an existing quote. If you select "New Quote", you will need to fill out all of the relevant job information related to that project. This gives you the ability to work on more than one list at a time. There is another way to create a quote, by using the shopping cart feature. You can add a complete list of plants to your shopping cart. This will give you the ability to easily view the list as you add plants in the shopping cart, and add notes to the plants when applicable. Once you have completed your list in the cart, you can save the entire cart as a new quote, which is an option you will find at the bottom of the list on the shopping cart page.
The quotes for your account are stored in the "My Quotes" section, which is a link that can be found at the top of our webpage. Orders for your account are stored within the Account Dashboard, which can be found by selecting the "My Account" tab at the top of the page. From there, you will need to select the "My Orders" link on the left side of this page. This will enable you to keep track of your projects – whether they are quotes or current/past orders.
- My Quotes - This section lists all of your Quotes. On this page, you have the ability to edit a quote, duplicate a quote and send a quote to your client via our Greenlinks feature. You can also select individual items or all of the items and create an order. If desired, you have the option to contact Bamboo Pipeline to re-price expired estimates.
- My Orders - This section lists orders that are in process or have been shipped. By clicking on the View Order, you can view or print the order details.
The Favorites section of our website enables you to select items from the on-line catalog that you use most often and allows you to save them in a Favorites list. By creating a Favorites list, you can save time searching for items and entering quantities when creating future estimates and orders. To add to an existing Favorites list, start a new project, add items as desired, and then save this new list to the Favorites list you wish to append.
The Account Info section of our website enables you to view your account information including your contact and website access info. If this information needs to be updated, please call 805-764-2600 or email the Bamboo Pipeline offices at sales@bamboopipeline.com.
