It's possible but with a module like http://www.coeos.pro/en/modules-prestashop/86-vat-management-and-customer-group-by-country-15-16.html

Why prestashop give you the groups when you can't use them?

It's simple if someone register to my site with VAT Number his group is another.

To sell modules, it is its only source of income.

It's never as simple as it looks like.

 

Product managers don't like to include one-off solution into the product. For example, assigning customer to group based on VAT number existence is very specific use case, and it won't be enough for everyone. I'm sure there would be some users that would like to assign customer according to country/state, or zip code or zip code range, or any other criteria. Some would like to have comprehensive list of rules, with priorities, etc.

 

To implement such feature is not an easy task, it requires considerable amount of development resources.

 

I'm sure this feature request is on backlog of some prestashop product manager. It just don't have enough priority.

 

Meanwhile we are stuck with custom one-off solutions or paid modules

Hello,

 

I have an issue. I'm selling to businesses and customers. I want to show the vat number only when the user puts something in the company name field (that's how it should work)

 

In my system, the vat number is always required in the adress form. Not matter if the field "company name" is empty or not.

 

I tried to enable and disable the B2B mode but that has no impact. How can I make this vatnumber field required for business and optional (or hidden) for customers?

 

Any idea?

 

Thanks a lot!
