Reply To: Question on how your plug in works

The answer to most of your questions is yes. Please see the docs page for the plugin to get a better feel for how it works:

The main thing my plugin does NOT do, is create global pricing rules for specific categories. For my plugin, you enter a specific wholesale price for each product. If the product does not have a Wholesale price, you can choose to not show it to wholesale customers (when they are logged into a Wholesale Customer account). As you have mentioned, wholesale prices can be set with quick edit and bulk edit, so that could speed up the process if you have a lot of products.

Wholesale prices will NOT be shown to the public… only logged in Wholesale Customers will be able to see wholesale prices.

My plugin will allow you to create a minimum order amount before a wholesale customer can check out, but it is a price total for the cart and not a quantity.

You can also set it so that wholesale customers do not need to pay at the time of checkout, and you can also disable taxes and shipping calculations for wholesale customers.

In addition to a wholesale price for each product, there is also a “Wholesale Only” checkbox for each product, which will then hide those products from the public, as well as any person logged into a regular customer account. Only those who have the Wholesale Customer role can see those products.

If you absolutely need to be able to set the wholesale prices via some sort of formula, instead of manually entering a price per product, and you also need to have minimum quantities for them to be able to order/checkout, you can contact me privately and we can go over everything in more detail, and I can give you a price quote for doing some custom programming to make it work the way you want.
