Enabling quick request view for enhanced services and bundles

Quick request services and bundles reduce the time needed to submit a service request and are helpful to users who submit the same service requests frequently. Catalog administrators can enable the quick request view for services and bundles for the entire catalog. If the quick request view is not enabled for the entire catalog, internal suppliers and internal supplier administrators can enable it for their services and bundles.
