WHAT IS ESA
===========
If you have a retailing business (like a computer store/shop), and looking to
increase productivity and customer satisfaction, this is a program to get started.

ESA is an easy to use point of sales quote price program which run under MS Windows 3.1,
and MS Windows 95. There is two parts: The first part is a user-friendly Price quote
software which allows a shop keeper to professionally prepare a quote (or several quotes)
to customer on the spot. Both the shop keeper and the customer can interactively query
the Quotation program, and thus provides several options to satisfy customer's
requirements. A hard copy print out of the quotation can be issued to customer at the
end of the query session.

The second part is a flexible data editor for ESA. Using this program, user can customize
ESA to individual business needs. All the pricing information such as product categories,
groups, item descriptions, prices and Tax rates can be easily modified by user.

Benefits of Using ESA:

1) A professional and consistent Quotation System.
2) Increase service quality: fast & accurate.
3) Ease of Customization to individual business need.
4) Recall past quotes for repricing or printing.
