B2B e-commerce has different requirements than B2C. Your business customers need bulk ordering, approval workflows, and payment terms. This guide covers essential B2B customizations for WooCommerce.

Bulk Ordering Features

Quick Order Forms

B2B buyers know what they want. Give them a quick order form where they can enter SKUs and quantities directly, without browsing product pages.

CSV Upload

Allow customers to upload a spreadsheet with their order. This is especially useful for repeat orders or large orders.

Reorder Functionality

Let customers easily reorder from previous orders with one click.

Approval Workflows

In B2B, the person ordering is often not the person paying. Implement approval workflows where: buyer creates order, order goes to approver, approver approves or rejects, if approved order is placed.

Role-Based Limits

Set spending limits by role. Junior buyers might need approval for orders over a certain amount, while senior buyers can approve automatically.

Payment Terms (Net Terms)

Net 30/60/90

B2B customers expect to pay by invoice, not credit card. Implement net terms allowing customers to pay 30, 60, or 90 days after order.

Credit Limits

Set credit limits per customer. Block new orders if customer exceeds their limit or has overdue invoices.

Invoice Generation

Generate professional invoices automatically. Include payment terms, purchase order numbers, and proper formatting.

Customer-Specific Pricing

Different customers get different prices. Implement: tiered pricing based on customer level, negotiated contract prices, volume discounts, and special promotions by customer group.

Implementation Options

B2B plugins for WooCommerce: B2BKing, WooCommerce B2B, Wholesale Suite, or custom development for complex needs.
