If a quote total doesn’t match the number in your head, it’s almost always something small and findable — a stray line, tax, or a deposit doing exactly what you set it to. Here’s how to spot it.

Check the lines

1
Read every line item
Open the quote and add up the lines yourself. The usual culprit is a line with the wrong price or quantity, or one you meant to delete. Fix it and the total updates live.

Check tax and deposit
If the lines add up but the total still looks off, check whether tax is applied and what your deposit is set to — a 50% deposit means the “due now” figure is half the total, which can look wrong at a glance.

Still doesn't add up?

If you’ve checked the lines, tax, and deposit and the total genuinely doesn’t add up, don’t send it — email support@getlever.ai with the quote and what you expected, and we’ll dig in.
