Makewright ConfiguratorWorkflow docs

Shopify configurator · Quote requests

Custom specifications.
A quote you can review.

Makewright collects product choices in your Shopify storefront, sends custom work to your quote inbox, and turns your approved terms into a Shopify draft-order invoice.

One product, two paths

Know what can check out.
Review what needs a conversation.

Northline’s Ridgeline table is a demonstration product, not a customer case study.

Standard configuration

180 × 90 cm, white oak

Hard wax oil, trestle base, one table. A supported configuration can proceed to checkout when its price is backed by Shopify merchandise.

Workshop review

260 × 110 cm, custom top

Choose Custom size and enter a 4 cm thickness. The table template routes this configuration to a quote, with its dimensions, timber and finish attached.

A calculated estimate does not make a custom price eligible for checkout. Formula-priced or review-required work goes through the quote workflow.

From request to invoice

You approve the terms.
Your customer pays the invoice.

  1. Collect the specification

    The shopper chooses options and submits a request. The quote keeps the configuration, pricing trace, published rule version, messages and attached files together.

  2. Review and agree

    Open the request, ask for clarification when needed, and set the commercial terms. A request is not automatically approved.

  3. Approve and invoice

    Approval creates or updates the Shopify draft order. Send its invoice so the customer can pay through Shopify; approval itself does not charge their card.

  4. Hand off the agreed work

    Use the customer quote document and printable production specification. With Growth or Pro, collect a deposit first and create a separate balance invoice after the deposit is paid.

Choose your workflow

For work that needs a human decision.

A good fit

Made-to-order products with custom dimensions, finish matching, specification files or terms that your team needs to review before payment.

When to use another approach

If every option is already a standard Shopify variant with a fixed price, native variants may be enough. Makewright does not add a 3D renderer, financing or an automatic manufacturing integration.

Need to review every request?

Request-pricing mode sends valid configurations to your quote desk and hides customer-facing prices. Use it when you want to agree a price before presenting an invoice.

Before you add quote requests

Can a price formula send any total to Shopify checkout?

No. Checkout must use supported Shopify merchandise pricing. Formula-priced or review-required configurations route to a quote for review and invoicing.

Does approving a quote collect payment?

No. Approval creates or updates the draft order. Your customer pays through the Shopify invoice you send.

Can I take a deposit?

Growth and Pro support deposits from 5% to 90%. After the deposit is paid, you create the separate balance invoice. Read the deposit and balance workflow.

What stays attached to the request?

The configuration, pricing trace, published rule version, uploaded files and quote messages remain with the request. See customer and production documents.
