Type B Purchasers only see products that have a price in the price list they are associated with.

If it is a long list then navigation can be created dynamically using the Product Category and Sub Category which can be configured manually in Shopfront Designer or synchronised with your accounts system.

You can set up ‘Agent’ logins for these staff and select the accounts you wish them to be able to input orders for. Your staff simply login and select the account they wish to place the order on behalf of. The website will then show that account’s prices and any other features it has been configured for. [Ben R.

If you need to show a subset of products different navigation then you can build a separate catalogue for that customer. Purchaser on that account can then be set to type C and attached to the top level department of that catalogue rather than the default one. [Ben R.
