No prices no stock request for quote module thingamajigger

Hi,

I need a way to remove prices from items, as well as remove stock levels. I have a client who wants the system to send an email with a request for quote for all items added to the cart. He does not want people to be able to see prices, or stock levels of items. Now, the current setup does not allow for the price fields to be blank. And it doesn't look nice when the items are priced '$0.00' (if you're using dollar).

Can someone please help with this?

I have this available now.

Is there a way to not show prices on certain items and allow prices on others? We have some vendors who will not allow online pricing to be shown on their products, while others are fine with it. A "call for price" or "e-mail for price" function would be nice.

Hi,

Sorry but I am also asking you the same question that where can get this? Please resolved these query..........!!

I did a post on this. I use a small modification of a suggestion put up by Qphoria which was to detect 0 currency values and then insert a text string instead. The trouble with this was it did the same when shipping cost was zero and when tax was zero also and looked odd. So here's what I did.

1. EDIT: system/library/currency.php (or system/helper/currency.php for certain versions)

2. FIND:

$string = '';


3. BEFORE, ADD:

if ($format && $value > 99999) {
return 'YOUR TEXT';
}

That's it! This one change does all. Now what you have to do is put a price of 999999 (note five 9s in the above code and six 9s in the product price) for all the products where you want your text to appear instead of the price. The reason for the five 9s compared to the six 9s is so the associated tax figure in the product display is also modified and it looks sensible.

Hope that helps

Hi Roger,

This is brilliant! I have one problem with payment. Because the amount is 999999 in the product and the customer is required to use a payment method because "free checkout" is not available on products over $0 - the invoice sent to the payment processor is listed as $999999.00. How would one overcome the requirement for payment on a product that only requires quotation?

cheers

Obviously by putting a text string in and not a price, the product is not intended to be sold per se, so payment doesn't come into it!

I would suggest that if someone then does want to order at a given price you either manually enter and then edit the order, or apply a one-off coupon to give the price you have agreed with them or you add a 'copy' product with the price you've agreed.

I'm sure there are other possibilities. You just have to identify a work-round. It isn't always necessary to edit code and often isn't desirable IMO.

#1But how does one get around the requirement to select a payment type before completing the order process??


The scenario I have is:

• The customer makes a selection of attire from my suppliers site.
• Fills in the various pieces of information: Product ID, size, style, custom embellishment and
• then submits the Quotation Request through the order process.

#2This is what I am intending to do - once I get over #1 above.

#3 I agree - the majority of any enhancements in my site have been "outside" the core and default theme. Which is OK when it comes to html and css - am not too bad at that; Its the php stuff that stumps.
