Instead, you could set the "Add to cart on listings" setting of the HikaShop configuration to "global". Then, turn on the display of the add to cart button on your listing. And change your "checkout workflow" in the HikaShop configuration to remove all the unecessary things like shipping, payment, etc. That way, your checkout can act like an inquiry form. You can also rename the "add to cart" button to what you want with a translation override (like anything else in the interface): [ www.hikashop.com/download/languages.html#modify](https://www.hikashop.com/download/languages.html#modify) And you can create custom fields of the table "item" via the menu Display>Custom fields so that you can enter data for each product you add to the cart. And the quantity field will also be available on the listing. So it will provide the same functionality, but instead of the quantity input and fields being on the inquiry form, it would be on the products listing. This would require the Business edition.
