Cannot add into database

[HttpPost]
[ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
public ActionResult Create([Bind(Include="Id,Reciever_Area,Parcel_Type,Delivery_Type,Parcel_Weight,Final_Cost")] quotation quotation)
{
    if (ModelState.IsValid)
    {
        db.quotations.Add(quotation);    <-- this isn't working
        db.SaveChanges();
        return RedirectToAction("Index", "Home");
    }

    return View(quotation);
}

This is the error message I get:

An exception of type 'System.InvalidOperationException' occurred in EntityFramework.dll but was not handled in user code

Additional information: The entity type quotation is not part of the model for the current context.

Since the quotation object is not created in the current dbContext thus you've to attach it before adding it.

 db.quotations.Attach(quotation);
 db.quotations.Add(quotation);
