In e-commerce business we deal with products and the services. In e-commerce business we always deals with quotes also, so how about adding a page/form of "Request a quote" ?

Today, in most of the e-commerce stores we see "Request a quote" form that needs to be filled by online customer to get price and other details regarding product(s).

Adding "Request a quote" form will adds to the e-commerce feature in nopCommerce project.

This form should ask information like this:


Name:   ______ * required
  
Address:   ______
  
City:   ______
  
State:   ______ DROP DOWN MENU CONSISTING STATES of that country in which the store is located or dealing with
  
Zip:           ______ * required
  
Phone:   ______ * required
  
E-mail Address   ______ * required

Company           ______

Enquiry (message body)    ______ * required

Additional information ______

[It will be great if there are mre fields in it and are configurable from the admin section just like registration fields]

I think that 0.1% of store owners need this page. That's why it'll not be added into official releases

Thank you abcd_12345. I too believe that a "Request a Quote" form should at least be an option to turn on in nopCommerce.

We have achieved something very similar and simple (in another software): Customer adds in the cart all items he wants to quot; in the cart there is a button "Get a Quote" which sends an e-mail to customer/store owner with some additional text (such as "this is a quote valid until .....") plus most of the fields including in a normal request.

This would be great! I have a customer who is looking for this exact thing! Please let me know if you creat a work item for it so I can vote for it!

As a quick fix for this...

OrderStatus is either 10, 20, 30, or 40 in the database.  When an order is placed it is initially set to OrderStatus.Pending which is 10.

Could OrderStatus be set to say, 50 if a checkbox is selected on the checkout page for quotes?  I can't imagine it would break any queries in other parts of the system if they encountered a 50...
