“Make an offer” Configurations

Once you enable this “Make an offer” feature in your Multivendor App, the configuration will be done on Admin end, seller end as well as on customer end.

Let us understand this one by one.

Admin End Configuration

After enabling this feature called “Make an offer”, you will get three new menus in the Make an offer configuration section of the app i.e.

General Configuration, Label Configuration, and Liquid File Configuration.

Make an offer configuration

General Configuration

From the below-specified screenshot, you can have the direct way to configure general details about “Make an offer”.

Firstly, you need to allow settings to “Admin”, “Seller” or “Both” and select who will manage the offer requests of the customers.

Now, you need to choose where you want to show the details of the offer requests either on each product page (individually) or on the cart page.

Have a look:

  • Auto-draft enables: By enabling this configuration requested product will automatically be created as a draft order after the admin and seller accepted the offer.

NOTE: If you disable the automatic draft order functionality then you have to manually remove the checkout button from the offer accept mail configuration.

  • Auto-create invoice: Enable this configuration, if you want Draft Order gets created as soon as the Customer accepts the request/offer (offer price + shipping cost)
  • Allow extra price: Enable this configuration, To allow customer to pay more than product’s actual price( as per the customer’s choice).
  • Allow counter price: this tab allows the admin to counter the price at the time of receiving offers from the customer side.
    once this enables admin or seller will get an option to put the status as pending and can request for another price or negotiate with the buyer.

For example A customer makes an offer for a product at 70$ and the product cost is 100$ but the seller/admin ask for 90$ for the product by adding a counter price and status will be in pending.

If customers agree to buy for 90$ then they can accept and if not they can deny by clicking on deny.

  • Allow shipping price: By default, this configuration is enabled, if the admin wants to disable shipping rate then the admin can disable the tab and shipping will not applicable in the customer offer.

The sellers will be receiving the request quotes from different buyers and will contact them outside the app.

  • No product prices will be shown on the cart page.
