RFQ from Cart is a special
Request Type that is used to configure a feature that allows customers to
request quotes for items that are listed in your Product Catalog with price set
to either “Request a Quote” or “Submit a Bid”.
When the customer is finished shopping and selects checkout, the system
checks their shopping cart for items with Price set to either “Request a Quote”
or “Submit a Bid” and if it finds any, it takes the customer to the RFQ form
that you defined using Form Builder for the RFQ from Cart Request Type. The customer fills out the form and submits
it. Using Request Management the RFQ
items can be priced and a Quote automatically created. It can be configured to email the quote to the
customer with a link to your website so approve an order.

Feature in Detail for additional information.
