Public quote

Overall Operation

1) Public Catalog
The module exposes a public page listing Dolibarr products and services.

Visitors can:

• browse products,

• select quantities,

• add line items to a “cart” (conceptually: a quote request).

2) Cart / Quote Request
The cart is session-based and does not require authentication.

Each item added displays a user message:
“Added to quote”.

Labels are managed through Dolibarr’s i18n system (multi-language).

3) Automatic Generation of a Commercial Proposal
Upon validation:

• the module creates a commercial proposal (propal) in Dolibarr:

  • status: draft

  • customer: created or identified based on the provided data

  • lines: products / services from the cart

• the proposal is:

  • marked as “Quote Request” via an extra field

  • identifiable as originating from PublicQuote

• a customizable private note is automatically added
  (e.g. “Created via the PublicQuote module”, configurable).

4) Dolibarr Back-Office Integration
For internal users:

• quote requests appear as standard commercial proposals

• they can be:

  • listed using a dedicated filter (extra field)

  • handled by sales staff like any other Dolibarr quote

• no modification of Dolibarr’s native workflow is required.
