Fix Internal Server Error When Submitting Quote for Approval
Summary This article explains the known cause and a step-by-step fix for an "Internal Server Error" that appears when clicking "Submit for Approval" on a quote.
Cause
- The error can occur when the contact linked to the quote (the contact set up for e-sign) does not have a first name and/or last name saved on their contact record and is represented only by an email address.
Quick fix (step-by-step)
- Open the deal or quote where the error occurs.
- Identify the contact linked to the quote (the contact designated for e-signature).
- Open that contact's record in your CRM.
- Add the contact's first name and last name to the contact record.
- Save the contact record.
- Return to the quote and click "Submit for Approval" again.
Notes and tips
- Updating the contact’s first and last name then resubmitting the quote resolves the error in affected cases.
- Ensure the contact assigned for e-sign on the quote has both name fields populated before submitting.
- If you have multiple quotes on a deal, check each quote’s e-sign contact to confirm name fields are filled.
Conclusion Populate the first and last name fields for the contact used for e-sign on the quote, then retry "Submit for Approval." This addresses the Internal Server Error observed in affected cases.
