The document describes a sales and stock control database system designed for marine dealerships. It allows users to (1) create quotes and offers to purchase with integrated pricing and profit calculations, (2) manage stock inventory including accessories and floorplan charges, and (3) track sales, profits, and floorplan liability and payments through comprehensive reporting. The system aims to help marine dealers efficiently manage the entire sales process from initial quotes to finalized sales.
