Small Enhancements to Existing PHP + MySQL Quote System (No Rebuild)
Overview
We operate a commercial print business with an existing PHP + MySQL quoting system.
We are not rebuilding or migrating platforms.
We need controlled, minimal enhancements to improve pricing behavior and historical visibility.
This is a small, focused job.
Scope of Work (No Rebuild)
- Do not refactor or redesign the system. Keep existing PHP + MySQL intact.
- Add new Economy Printer record to printer table.
- Set Digital + Economy stock as default selections for new quotes.
- Keep Premium/Indigo available, but relabel as “Upgrade” (UI text change only).
- Update/create Economy markup profile only if required (no pricing engine rewrite).
- Do not modify existing PDF generation logic.
History Check Tool
- Add small “Check History” button on quote screen.
- Build lightweight PHP endpoint (read-only).
- Query MySQL for similar jobs by Client + Size + Qty + Printer.
- Return last 5–10 matching jobs.
- Display modal table: Date | Description | Qty | Tier | Sell | GP%
- Show banner if majority of past jobs were Premium.
- No automatic tier switching — informational only.
Process Requirements
- Work on cloned dev database only.
- Keep changes minimal and reversible.
- No framework migration.
- No architectural redesign.
- Clean, documented additions only.

We expect this to be a small job (approx. 8–12 hours).

- Fixed price based on the above scope
or
