Quote PDF ​

Every quote can be produced as a PDF — in the native Shopware document layout, so it matches your other documents (invoice, delivery note).

How the PDF is produced ​

The PDF runs through Shopware's standard document pipeline (the same renderer as for invoices). Company data, logo and footer come from the document settings. Since a quote is not yet an order, nothing is written to the document management — the PDF is rendered fresh on each request.

Configuration: document type "Quote" ​

On installation the plugin creates a dedicated document type:

  • Location: Settings → Documents → "Quote".
  • Here you maintain — as with the other documents — company name, address, logo, footer, tax/bank data etc., per sales channel.
  • Pre-set defaults include A4 portrait, 10 positions per page, display of header/footer, positions and prices. The filename begins with quote_.

The quote number comes from a dedicated number range (pattern AN-{n}); see Configuration.

What the PDF contains ​

  • Header area with company data/logo and recipient block (customer's billing address).
  • Quote number, creation date and valid until.
  • Intro text (placeholders resolved), then the position table:
    • per position quantity, unit price and total,
    • for a negotiated price, the struck-through list price next to it,
    • tier prices as a hint under the position,
    • alternative groups including the default marking,
  • Optional positions separately at the end (without a position number), not in the total.
  • Totals (net/gross, shipping, discount) and the closing text.
  • Note "This quote is subject to change. All prices include statutory VAT unless stated otherwise."
