Is DC useable for/adaptable to internal stock search and management
Hi,
I recently started working at a company which has a dozen product ranges with between 20 and 100s of products (or product variations) in each range. I don't want to set up an online store though because almost all of the products (mining and construction materials and components) require customers to get assistance and a quote from an estimator.
But with so many products it's a pain to have to rifle through all of these hard copy catalogs and price lists. I would like to make all of our product and pricing information available, for internal employees, through the company's Drupal-based website/portal. It would also make creating quotes a lot easier.
My question then is: is Drupal Commerce useable or easily adaptable to this. I know about Drupal's taxonomy system so I can easily create the product ranges and product types and then import the data. But, does Commerce have a quote creation feature. It'd be sort of like using a cart but the user would select or enter the customer details, add products, modify the specs (if the client needs customizations made), adjust prices, apply discounts etc. and then create/print/email the quote?
If this is all easy enough to do then I will try to talk to the IT guys in the head office about installing the module so I can see what I can do with it.
Thanks in advance for your help.

I tried searching but I couldn't find anything with the terms I used. Do you have a link to it or do you know what terms I should use?
