Adding Accessories to a Won Deal (Request Change)

Once you submit a deal in PREO and it is WON, the data is imported into EA one time. PREO does not currently actively communicate with EA, so if a deal is changed in PREO after it is won, nothing makes its way to EA without human intervention and manual changes. Think of it as using a Kiosk to order a sandwich. Once you submit your order it goes to the Kitchen. You can't change the order you submitted by going into the Kiosk ad changing your order - you need to still communicate the change to the kitchen.


While each situation is unique, you can get accessories added to a deal that has already delivered by following these steps:

First and foremost, you should notify Order Processing from the Chat in the Deal and via email to stop processing the Deal immediately – once it is Fulfilled, everything recommended below would change.

To get the accessory ordered and delivered it is usually easiest to create a new "Accessory Add On" order to get the accessory ordered and delivered, especially if the equipment has already been delivered. Follow these steps:

  • Create a new proposal.

  • Change the Order type to Accessory Add On (upper right hand corner or on the Requirements Tab).

  • Change the Name of the proposal to include the Original PREO Job #.

  • Add the accessory that you need – jus the accessory, not the whole machine (Click Accessory Only under Add).

  • Change from Lease to Cash.

  • Set Price to $0.

  • Explain situation in Order Processing Notes. Indicate if you are swapping any existing accessory or just adding.

  • Include the Original PREO job Number in the Order Processing Notes.

  • Hit Submit.

  • Once Won, go to the Original deal and submit a Request Change.

  • Explain what happened and put in the new Job # of the accessory you added.

  • The Request Change will be reviewed, and deal will be unlocked so you can update the main deal.

Or, if the Equipment has not been built/shipped and/or Order Processing recommends otherwise, follow these steps:

  • Connect with your Warehouse personnel or someone from Order Processing who will update and make the appropriate changes to EA and reprocess.

  • Once confirmed, submit a Request Change from the deal and explain the situation and identify who will be changing EA.

  • The Request Change will be reviewed, and deal will be unlocked so you can update.
