Send orders directly to manufacturer


Recommended Posts

Is it possible to set this up in PrestaShop:

When a customer place an order, PS automatically sends the order to the manufacturer?

Preferably it should split the purchase order if the customer orders products made by different manufacturers.

The reason for all this is a company that want to use PS as a central point of purchasing for their branch offices.

Thanks for any help!

no modules as far as i'm aware curently do this so it would require alot of custom coding to do within prestashop. Although having said that alot of work with the sql would already be written with the stats pages queries.



Only my personal opinioon but whever wants this implemented hasnt actually thought through the implections. I'm presuming it will be so that they can pull together the purchases so as they receive bigger discounts from the manufacturer whereas they way they thinking of doing it wil only end up with them in dsputes over shipping costs as will be lots of small orders placed all through the day also unless it strictly employees placing the orders it leaves them open for fruadulant large orders not being checked until its too late to stop them.

Probably easiest to implement would be some having a bespoke main office client side application written that queries the actual database near the end of the day which pulls all the sold data down, does the statistical and analytic work, then fires off the order emails to manufacturers. (sounds more complicated than will be to do)
