How To Finance Proposals With Manual Entry?

Why This Matters

Financing options can make or break a deal. When your finance integration is set up correctly, your sales team can present customers with payment options in seconds, turning 'I can't afford it' into 'Where do I sign?'

What You'll Need

  • Admin access to SubcontractorHub

  • Active finance partner integration

  • A web browser (Chrome or Edge recommended)

Step-by-Step Instructions

Financing A Proposal With A Loan

Step 2: Select a solar loan from the dropdown and click “Add Loan”.

Step 3: Click “Finalize” on the financing card to finalize the loan option.

Step 4: Click “Yes” to continue.

Step 5: You can remove the quote by clicking the “x” button or click “Unfinalize” to add other finance options.

Financing A Proposal With A Lease

Real-World Example

💡 A solar sales rep presents three financing options to a homeowner right at the kitchen table. The customer sees monthly payments for each option side-by-side and picks the one that fits their budget — deal closed in one visit.
