With our Quotes plugin, your customers can also request quotes independently from the storefront. Whether and when a customer is granted the option to request a quote can be controlled via the plugin configuration. To do this, the plugin extends the standard Shopware checkout function so that the customer's current cart content is saved as a quote for later processing in the backend.
The process from the customer's perspective is structured similarly to the process from the shop owner's perspective, with the difference that the Create quote button in the cart or in the cart overlay is here called Request quote and leads to the following page:
Here, the customer can enter a message for the shop owner if needed and, after correctly entering the displayed captcha, submit their quote request. This article explains how you can customize the form.
Note: To make the quote request function as transparent as possible, the Request quote button is also displayed in the cart view for customers who are not yet logged into the shop. If such a customer clicks the button, they are first automatically redirected to the registration form. There, an additional note is displayed to them.
