Does the checkout module support B2B features like purchase orders?

Question published 2433 views

Checkout Revolution supports several B2B essentials but does not ship a multi-step purchase-order approval workflow.

Checkout Revolution quote, VAT and credit-account settings
Checkout Revolution configuration, quotes, VAT handling and account options.

What IS supported: a full quote workflow with custom statuses (colour-coded and customer-visible), email templates bound to each status, and customer-facing accept-and-pay pages so a buyer can convert a quote into a paid order without sales involvement. Company VAT-number capture, net-price display where your tax rules allow it and custom company fields are also covered, and invoices and credit notes can be customised per shop. Tax handling respects PrestaShop's native tax rules, which keeps multi-country B2B clean.

What is NOT included: a true approve → submit → invoice purchase-order workflow (where a buyer's procurement team approves before payment, and you ship on net-30 terms with a separate PO document). That kind of flow needs a dedicated B2B/quotation module or custom development on top of Checkout Revolution.

For automatic VIES-based VAT validation at checkout, pair with our Automatic EU VAT Checker module. Supports PrestaShop 1.6 to 9.x.

Under the hood, the quote system stores quote statuses, quote items, quote messages, quote history and quote-to-order links, with defaults such as QUO-{YEAR}-{ID:5} references, 30-day quote validity and 48-hour payment links. Optional quote fields include phone, company, project reference and attachment; guest quote requests exist but are disabled by default. Price negotiation is also a separate setting, so you can keep quoting simple or allow counter-offers depending on your sales process.

For purchase-order-style data, the practical route is to capture a PO/reference number as a custom checkout or invoice field, or use the credit-account/manual payment method where that fits your process. The module includes credit-account payment handling and a trade-account application handoff, but its own integration notes keep approval workflows, credit limits and company account management as responsibilities for a dedicated trade-account layer. In short: good for quotes, VAT/company fields, credit-account checkout and invoice customisation; not a complete procurement approval system by itself.
