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: [ www.hikashop.com/home/our-partners.html](https://www.hikashop.com/home/our-partners.html) The following user(s) said Thank You: [solia](/forum/user/10273-solia "View solia's Profile") Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzM1LW9yZGVycy1tYW5hZ2VtZW50Lzg5MTc2Ni1jYW4td2UtdXNlLWEtZGlmZmVyZW50LWludm9pY2Utc3R5bGUtZm9yLXdob2xlc2FsZS11c2VyLWdyb3VwP3RtcGw9bWFya2Rvd24=) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[solia](/forum/user/10273-solia "View solia's Profile")** - [![solia's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/avatars/resized/size144/users/avatar10273.jpg)](/forum/user/10273-solia "View solia's Profile") Topic Author - [ Offline](/forum/user/10273-solia) Less More - Posts: 30 - Thank you received: 2 - - 9 years 1 month ago [\#279192](#279192) by [solia](/forum/user/10273-solia "View solia's Profile") Replied by *[solia](/forum/user/10273-solia "View solia's Profile")* on topic *[Can we use a different invoice style for Wholesale User Group?](/forum/35-orders-management/891766-can-we-use-a-different-invoice-style-for-wholesale-user-group#279192 "-- url of the page with the problem -- : www.tokeshoes.com -- HikaShop version -- : 3.1.1 -- Joomla version -- : 3.7.5 -- PHP version -- : 7.0 Dear friends: We have been users of Hikashop for years.
