Is HikaShop my solution?

I have looked over HikaShop and it seems that it will do what I am looking for but I want to be sure before I test, yet another cart for Joomla!.

What I need to do:

3 Shopper Groups (Wholesale, Consultant, Public)

1. Wholesale will have a wholesale price

2. Consultant has a consultant price (+ multiple level discounts on certain items either by coupon(s) or another way)
Example:
Consultant has a product party and takes the orders by paper and collects the retail price for the items. The consultant then comes to the website and orders all of the items for the party but receives a 20% discount on the order (consultant keeps that 20% already collected and pays manufacturer consultant price).

The hostess of the party receives some items at 1/2 price for hosting the party and also receives 10% off of the rest of their order. The consultant needs to make this order so I am thinking that the "hostess order" would be a separate order from the "party order"

3. Public needs to be able to view all of the products with a retail price but not be able to purchase unless the item is "open for purchase" by the public.

Can you turn off cart functionality for a group of users? Can you turn on cart functionality for the public only on select items?

I have been pulling out my hair on this for a couple of weeks now trying to find a solution that will fit my clients needs. I would prefer to create only 1 website with one shopping cart that can do this, if not I am open to creating 2 websites (one public and one for wholesale/consultants)

If any one knows if HikaShop will fit the needs of this project and/or has any suggestions, I would be so grateful!! Thank you in advance. :)

Hi,

You can handle prices and discounts for different user groups with the access level feature of the Business edition of HikaShop.
If a product has no price, you can remove its add to cart button. So using access levels, if a user do not have access to any prices of the product, he will not be able to buy it (it's a possibility which can also be deactivated).
If you still want to display a price in that case, you will have to create a custom field of the table "product" in order to display the retail price for each product.

Hi Nicolas, I brought the Business Edition of Hikashop one week ago and I'd like to accomplish the multiprice sistem described in this topic but I'm not able to edit the access level on my products.

Will you help me with this please, or, could you point me to the documentation about this feature.

Thanks a lot.


Daniel.

Hi,

In the prices area of your product edition page, there is an "access level" column with an icon on which you can click in order to open a popup and define the access level for the price:

Hi, I found the access level on price, but I can't find the icon to open a popup.

Here is a screenshot, could you please point me to the icon.

Thanks a lot.

Hi, I found it.

The price has to be saved in order to alow the access level to work.

Thanks a lot.
