Can we use a different invoice style for Wholesale User Group?

-- HikaShop version -- : 3.1.1
-- Joomla version -- : 3.7.5
-- PHP version -- : 7.0
Dear friends:
We have been users of Hikashop for years. One of our clients desires to expand its use of Hikashop to a "Wholesale" user group.
Until now they have been handling wholesale orders by a separate system. They see advantages (such as good invoice tracking) by user their store for both retail and wholesale sales.
As the client envisions, wholesalers can either log in and place their orders, or the client can enter the orders and ship them.
The client would (understandably we think) use a different invoice style for wholesale purchasers. We have always just used the standard order/invoice view, with some customizations.
My first question is whether having an alternative invoice style for a different user group is possible. I have looked high and low, but I cannot find an answer.
Assuming that can be done, we would likely need the help of someone with better skills than me to customize the wholesaler invoice, but the first question is the threshold question: Can a unique invoice style be used for a particular user group?
THANK YOU in advance!
Nadine at Solia.

Hi,
Well, it's not a problem as long as the person doing the work knows what he is going.
You should simply make a copy of the invoice view file (via FTP), and at the top of the one you copied it from, add some code to check the user group of the user of the order and if that is a wholesaler, then include the copied invoice view file and return.
That way, you now have two view files for the invoice based on the user group.
If you need someone to help you on that, you can contact our partners:
