Quotes: settings, costing and lookups
Set sale probability
/a/Quote_setSaleChance
Store a quote’s sale-chance percentage independently of status.
When to use this endpoint
Use for the Quotes Sale Chance cell. CRM1 clamps 0–100 in the browser; the server does not impose that range.
Authentication and permissions
Authenticates a signed API key or CRM session as its tenant user. Requires Quotes View (pageQuotes_view). Non-admin users blocked by legacy crm_access bit 32 are denied. Roleless non-admin users fail closed. Also requires Quotes Edit (pageQuotes_edit); client administrators inherit page permissions.
Uses local tenant IDs. The active quote must also satisfy the account’s customer department/account-manager visibility filters for non-admin users, including signed-key requests.
Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
id | Integer-compatible quote ID | Yes | Positive local quote ID, integer-converted; an active quote is required. |
val | Float-compatible value | Yes | Finite numeric percentage, from 0 through 100 inclusive. |
Example request
$result = FM_api('Quote_setSaleChance', ['id'=>'1042','val'=>'75']);
Example response
{"ok":1}
Errors and unusual responses
| Response | Condition |
|---|---|
{"error":"not logged in"} | No authenticated tenant context is available. Invalid signed credentials can be rejected by the dispatcher before the handler runs. |
{"error":"quote does not exist"} | The active quote is missing (lookup failures are reported separately). |
{"error":"Unable to save quote. Check the saved state before retrying."} | Database, audit, transaction or commit acknowledgement failed. Refresh saved state before retrying an uncertain commit. |
{"error":"permission denied"} | Required Quotes permission is absent or the non-admin actor is blocked by legacy access settings. |
{"error":"missing or invalid parameter: id"} | Missing/nonpositive quote ID. |
{"error":"missing or invalid parameter: val"} | val is omitted/null. Invalid content or a missing related record produces a specific validation error without a write. |
Legacy application errors may be returned with HTTP 200. Check the decoded response for error, not only the HTTP status.
Behaviour and edge cases
- Accepts a finite numeric percentage between 0 and 100 inclusive. Rejects missing/deleted quotes before comparison; an identical value returns warning=no change needed.
- Does not change quote status or its sale-chance date.
- Locks the active quote in a tenant transaction. Bound writes, last_edited (server-local date/time), quote history and quotes cache invalidation are checked together. Audit or primary write failure rolls back. Existing caller transactions retain a savepoint; an uncertain commit returns an error and is never replayed automatically.
- No direct mobile app/m-service caller for this RPC was found.
Side effects
- Updates the named data and last_edited, records quote history and requests quotes cache invalidation in the tenant transaction. No ordinary mention notice, notification or email is sent by this dedicated handler.

CRM1
Quotes → Sale Chance clamps the number then calls Quote_setSaleChance. That clamp is UI-only.
CRM2
CRM2 Quotes uses moduleQuotes and the shared mapped editor. No direct call to this dedicated setter was found; ordinary edits use Quote_updateData/Quote_updateField.
