Custom Requirement of the Client:
The client wanted to introduce a reservation-based purchasing system for selected customer groups, allowing them to reserve both in-stock and pre-order products instead of purchasing them immediately. However, PrestaShop’s default checkout process did not support such a controlled and segmented workflow.
Some of the key challenges faced were:
- No native functionality to reserve products before purchase or manage reservations separately from regular orders.
- Inability to restrict reservation access to specific customer groups while keeping products unavailable for standard customers.
- No mechanism for the admin to manually assign and adjust product quantities once supplier stock is received.
- Heavy reliance on manual processes to track reservations, allocate stock, and coordinate order fulfillment.
Our team understood the requirement and implemented the necessary resolution to achieve the reservation functionality as per the customer’s requirement.
Conclusion:
