Default Large conversion of OSCMAX Questions

Hi all.

New to OSCMAX but it looks similar to OSC MS2.

I had taken an MS2 OSCommerce and removed the payments, shipping etc and essentially turned it into a product request system, however it would seem likely that OSCMAX is more suited to this function.

I can turn it into the same request information system no problem, I do have a few questions though that I may need some assistance on, hope someone can help me out here.

1. I would like to remove the price from the main store from being visible, and if a retailer logs in show one set of prices for the items, and if a wholesale client logs in he has a different set of prices, can this be done?

2. Assuming the above cannot be done, is it possible to simply not have any prices in the main catalog visible, on orders etc, however in admin be able to go in and edit the price per client, and email them the new order information with prices?

Default RE: Large conversion of OSCMAX Questions

create 3 groups
1) retail
2) retailer
3) wholesaler

set retail price to 0.00
set retailer price to the retailer price
set wholesaler price to the wholesaler price

modify the product_info.tpl.php to display a message "must log in to see pricing" when the value is $0.00

Modify includes/modules/product_listing_col.php to display "must be logged in" in the price field when price = $0.00

Modify shopping_cart.tpl.php to not add or display products if not logged in.

Add field to create_account.tpl.php and the customers table for "Type of account"
Add field to customers_table for active have te default set to "0"
Add display item that show customers by active/inactive state in admin

process.
1) Potential customer come to site and can browse, but gets no pricing
2) Potential customer creates an account - set to inactive
3) You can see created accounts in admin that are inactive and set active with correct group applied
4) Customer can return to site and see pricing based on their group when logged in
5) when logged in customer can add items to cart and checkout.

Mattering on how far you want to carry this, you can then modify specials, featured products and other components to not display pricing or to only show up when customers are logged in, etc.

Is this all possible to do? Yes. Is it a lot of work? Yes. I would quote this job at about 60-80 hours based on just these mods, if you wanted more then the hours would go up based on what you needed.

Default RE: Large conversion of OSCMAX Questions

Or you can just add the updated by jpf call for price in the contributions for oscmax change words in english to log in for price go to admin put price in as zero for your product go to customer groups add your retail and wholesale customer groups and your done. Not a lot of work about an hour.
The only problem is the could still add to cart without logging in but it would show zero. So if you know how could update shopping_cart.tpl.php to not add products unless logged in. If you have trouble installing call for price see one of my other posts on call for price for a missing character that may be needed.
