Manage wholesale companies

What does this do for me?

A company is the wholesale account you sell to. Each company carries its own tier, payment terms, discount, tax-exempt flag, and order limits, and it connects to customers, locations, and price lists.

Create a company

  1. Open Companies.
  2. Select Create company.
  3. Under Company identity, fill in Company name, an optional B2B tier (default standard), and a Status of Active, Inactive, or Pending.
  4. Under Commercial terms, set Payment terms to None, Net 15, Net 30, Net 45, Net 60, or Net 90, a Default discount, a Tax exempt flag, and an Assigned sales rep.
  5. Under Order limits, set Minimum total item quantity and an optional Maximum order value (optional).
  6. Select Create company to save.
The Tax exempt helper notes that flags apply as taxExempt on B2B draft orders and require a plan that includes the feature. Minimum total item quantity rejects draft orders below that total, and Maximum order value caps the final B2B subtotal in shop currency.

Edit or delete a company

  1. In the company table, open a company and change any field. The editor heading reads Edit <company name>.
  2. Select Create company / save to store your changes.
  3. To remove one, choose Delete on its row, then confirm with Delete company. The dialog warns that this removes its contacts, locations, and price-list assignments and cannot be undone.
Use Manage locations to open Company locations and Corporate accounts to open the Premium corporate buyer screen.

Optional: sync to a Shopify company

Shopify company ID accepts an optional Shopify Company GID. B2B attributes sync to Shopify Company metafields only when that ID is provided, and the helper states this requires Shopify Plus and the Premium plan. Customer metafields still sync on all plans. Leave the field blank to use customer metafields only.

Understand the company table

The list shows Name, Status, Tier, Payment terms, Discount, Tax exempt, Contacts, and Price lists. Empty cells read Not set. Use the Search companies by name field; when nothing matches, the list shows No companies match your search.
