Packaged Windows application
01 / PROBLEM

Preserve familiar Excel delivery while improving lookup and input.

Excel remains important for delivery, but it is inefficient for large catalog search and repeated entry. The tool centralizes the work in a desktop interface, then exports the existing format.

02 / FLOW

Let users focus on quote content instead of file handling.

  1. 01Search
  2. 02Edit quote

03 / DECISIONS

The native application is a context choice, not a missing web version.

Native PyQt5 UI

Fits Windows, file operations, and the existing Excel workflow.

openpyxl output

Preserves the familiar spreadsheet delivery format.

PyInstaller packaging
