How software is actually priced, and what makes the number move.
About Custom software cost
Nobody can quote software from a description of the idea, and anyone who does is quoting a different project from the one you will end up with. What a quote needs is a specification: the screens, the rules, the integrations and the edge cases.
The things that move the number most are integrations with systems you do not control, the number of distinct user roles, and how much of the existing process has to be reproduced exactly rather than simplified.

Common questions
A range, with the assumptions written down — and it will be a wide one. A firm figure needs a scoped specification, which is a short piece of paid work in its own right.
Fixed price suits a well-specified, bounded piece of work. For anything exploratory, time and materials with a fixed cadence of delivery is more honest, because a fixed price on unknown scope is paid for in change requests.
