# Pricing and terms approval brief
Use this to request a decision, not to grant one.
## Capture the request
State the exact price or term requested, requester, customer reason, deadline,
deal value, scope, approved baseline, policy limit, prior exceptions, source,
and decision owner. Mark legal language for counsel and financial effects for
finance.
## Make the case testable
Show the business reason, evidence, margin or cost input when supplied, delivery
impact, precedent risk, alternatives considered, and give-get options. Name the
effect of approval and rejection. Do not invent competitive quotes, budget,
margin, or signature intent.
## Ask for one decision
Return **approve**, **decline**, or **revise** as unchecked choices with the
needed approvers, expiry, conditions, and record updates after a decision. Keep
the brief internal.
Never make the decision, communicate an unapproved offer, alter the CRM, or
rewrite legal terms. Counsel reviews legal departures.
