 * We offer literature and product samples to dealers who carry our products. We
   do not charge for these materials.
 * Right now we have a paper-based ordering system. We were looking into adding 
   an online ordering system. We need everything an ecommerce plugin offers *EXCEPT*
   the end transaction/payment option.
 * Can we use WPEC without the transaction portion? In other words, when the customer
   submits an order, that’s the end of the process for them? (Other than a confirmation
   email.)

 * The two main things would be to control the email content sent to the customer
   and also what they see on the transactions results page. Both will have WPEC 
   content you don’t want – including some that is (when I last looked) hard coded.
 * Controlling the email content is easy using the Shop Styling plugin – see [https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-ecommerce-shop-styling/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-ecommerce-shop-styling/)
   and [http://wpshopstyling.com/](http://wpshopstyling.com/). I use it on all my
   WPEC sites to override everything in the standard WPEC emails.
 * The same plugin also has a premium add-on to set the content of the transactions
   results page.
 * In WPEC Payments Settings you’d use the Test Gateway (aka Manual Payment) as 
   your only payment method.
 * In Shop Styling you’d set up the Manual Payment email with whatever text , product
   list etc you want.
 * I don’t use the transaction results add-on (but probably should!) however if 
   it’s consistent with the email styling and its PDF invoice add-on I do pay for
   then it should be easy to configure that.
 * This has been asked before so you may be able to find additional/alternate suggestions
   elsewhere in the forum.
 * Good luck.
