Storefront- Shopping List Management

Shopping list introduction

In B2B E-commerce, a shopping list is a list of items that wholesalers plan to buy. This feature allows businesses to create and maintain lists of products and manage them to support future purchases. 

The shopping list feature offers several key benefits to businesses, including: 
  1. Efficiency and time savings: Shopping lists eliminate the need to search for products individually each time an order is placed, saving valuable time for purchasing teams.
  2. Customizable shopping lists: Our B2B eCommerce platform allows businesses to create and customize shopping lists based on their specific needs. You can categorize and organize products into lists for easy access and retrieval.
  3. Collaboration and sharing: Multiple authorized users within your organization can access and edit shopping lists.
  4. Order accuracy: By having predefined lists of products, businesses can reduce the risk of errors in their orders.
  5. Quick order: Businesses can easily add products to their shopping lists and convert these items into orders directly from a shopping list.
Actions that you can do with this feature are listed below:
  1. Create shopping lists.
  2. Edit the shopping list.
  3. Delete the shopping list. 
  4. Convert a shopping list into a cart order.
  5. Save a current cart as a shopping list.
