ClickCartPro - Wholesale System
ClickCartPro has a built-in wholesale system which is quite easy to manage. Here is how to do it:
1. Turn on the system by accessing the management interface function:
Home > Hybrid X Core > Settings: Application Settings Menu > Wholesale and Affiliate Account Settings
Set:
Wholesale System Status true (0) - A true value activates the system and a false value deactivates the system. If active, customers with basic accounts will have the option to request an account upgrade to make their account a wholesale account. If you activate the wholesale system, be sure to add wholesale prices to e-commerce application products and product options - or use global wholesale discounts for users.
2. Once the system is activated, for any users whose group is 'basic', an option will be presented in the account menu for 'Request Account Upgrade'. This allows a user to request an account upgrade to a wholesale account from the site owner. Those requests are sent to the email address entered for the 'Account Upgrade Request' message edited under Home > ClickCartPro > Mail: Messages, Mail and Subscriptions > Manage Mail Messages.
3. When the site owner receives the account upgrade message from a user, if the site owner wishes to approve the request and make the account a wholesale account, they can do so using the management interface function:
Home > Hybrid X Core > User Accounts: Users, User Groups and Affiliate Payments > Manage User Accounts
Locate the user account and choose to update it. Set:
User Group wholesale
Wholesale Account Discount Percentage This field holds the discount percentage for a wholesale account. If you set this field to '0.000', static price amounts entered on the product and product option level in ecommerce applications will be used to calculate the wholesale price for items. If you set this percentage to a number greated than zero, the wholesaler will receive a discount based on the entered percentage.
4. After setting up the wholesaler, the site owner should email them and let the know they have been approved and should access their account for wholesale info. Upon logging in, the wholesaler is presented with another option in the account menu, the Wholesale Account Information option. This option provides wholesalers with their current discount status.
