The situation
A reseller wants 500 units, delivered to Austria, by the end of the quarter. They write a three-line email, and sales then asks back three times.
A volume enquiry for business customers
Volume pricing on request is common. What is uncommon is a request containing everything a quote needs.
The job
Where the built-in tools stop
A second contact form on a B2B page is no solution: there is no product on it, and private customers still find it.
This is what the form looks like
Quantity with a minimum and maximum, preferred date from an earliest date, country from the Shopware master data.

A rule decides who sees it
A rule from the Shopware rule builder hangs on the assignment (on the customer group, for instance). If it does not apply, the assignment drops out and the form does not appear at all.
The country comes from the shop
The country selection draws its values from the sales channel's countries. So there is no second list that could go stale.
Limits on the number field
Minimum, maximum and step sit as attributes on the field. A request for 0 units or 900,000 units never comes about.
Where it sits
Product assignment through a dynamic product group, restricted by a rule on the customer group. Position "Own tab", so the product page stays unchanged for everyone else. Whoever is not a dealer yet first sends a dealer inquiry.
What comes back
Company, VAT ID, quantity, date and country as columns of their own, plus the product number in the context. That is exactly the row a quote is made from.
