    Default Quote system

    Hey guys

    Well, i have one of those stuborn customers, i installed zencart without actually knowing if i can do it this way.

    I have a customer who does not want to display prices on her products, but want the public to still "add to cart" but instead of that "add to quote" so that she can work the cart as a quote request and not as an actual shopping cart.

    Is this possible, how will i do it and if not, does anyone know of another free php program which can do this, or one i need to buy, anything would help.

    Thank you,
    nVee

    When you're entering a product in admin, make it "Call for Price."

    You see, the customer does not want that. They want people to still "add to cart", but when they completed their "order" the list must be e-mailed to them so that they can send a quote to the customer manually.

    I'm doing pretty much the same thing right now...

    I've got the products all set as downloads, but with no download files associated. That way it skips shipping details in the checkout process.

    For the payment system, I'm using Offsite Payment with a few simple changes to the displayed verbiage to explain that we're just taking quotes and will contact them back to negotiate/iron out details/get shipping info/etc. Then just disable all the other payment modules.

    That should get you to about the point you want...

    Okay lets try this one last time:

    The products must not display prices, and instead of "add to cart" it must show "add to quote". Now up to this point it was quite simple because you can merely change the products attributes to product is free and edit the images so that it shows "ADD to QUOTE" but the moment you click on the "ADD to QUOTE" image it takes you to your basket where it shows the products in your basket as well as the prices and total price for the products. Obviously we do not want it to show that prices there because it will default show as "$0.00" because the product has been set as free.

    How can I edit and remove all related links to pricing during the checkout phase. The client just wants to get a quote system.
