Question(s) to HikaMarket Multi-vendor

Hi

before purchasing HikaMarket Multi-vendor, I would like to confirm whether it is suitable for our setup.

We have one HikaShop 6.6.0 store, but two legal sellers:

Seller 1 – event products (with HikaSerial)
Seller 2 – books

An order should contain products from only one seller.

We need:

Products assigned to either Seller 1 or Seller 2
Different seller/company data on invoices
Separate invoice number formats/sequences
Different payment methods per seller
Events: credit card only
Books: PayPal / bank transfer / credit card
Different bank/payment information per seller
Compatibility with the HikaShop PDF Invoice plugin (currently 5.1.0), including Factur-X

Would HikaMarket Multi-vendor be the recommended solution for this setup?

In particular, can the customer PDF invoice use the vendor data and vendor-specific invoice number, or would this require a customization of the PDF Invoice layout/plugin?

Best regards,
Thomas

Hello,

I started to write a long message and I had a little computer issue...

HikaMarket can handle the different payment methods and there is a mode to limit the creation of sub orders BUT.
It would require some validations and patchs to be sure that the vendor orders be completely independent.
Because HikaMarket can override the invoice address on some views, but it is possible that the PDF plugin generate its file outside of the context of that view display trigger.

Hi,
thank you, this helps to clarify the situation.
Our requirement is that the two business areas are completely separated:

Vendor 1 

• event products
• credit card payment
• GfSE e.V. as invoice issuer
• separate invoice number sequence 

Vendor 2 

• book products
• PayPal / invoice payment
• SE-TREC GmbH as invoice issuer
• separate invoice number sequence 

We are using the HikaShop PDF Invoice plugin with a customized
The most important point for us is therefore:
Can HikaMarket reliably provide the correct vendor/company data to the PDF Invoice plugin so that the generated PDF invoice uses the correct invoice issuer for each vendor?

If this is not supported out of the box, would you be able to provide the required patch/customization?
We would also need confirmation that the invoice numbering can be kept completely separate for the two vendors.
We do not need a marketplace with multiple external sellers. We only need these two internal business entities to be technically and financially separated.

Thomas

Hello,

Regarding the integration with PDF Invoice plugin, it would be better to ask Nicolas about it.
