Your trade customers don’t shop — they restock. Volant B2B Manager gives WooCommerce stores that sell to businesses the tools those buyers actually use, built as independent modules that switch on as your trade side grows.
🧰 BOM Builder — parts lists your buyers reorder from
Every buyer gets a personal, named parts list (“Workshop restock”, “Line 3 spares”) with:
- Live product search with images, variation pickers, and stock badges
- One-click add-to-cart — the whole list goes into the cart in one action
- Smart conflict handling — stock limits, sold-individually rules, and items already in the cart are resolved cleanly, never silently dropped
- Quantities and running totals that persist between visits
Buyers can keep as many lists as they need — there are no plan limits.
🔁 Orders Page — order history that works
A styled, fast order-history page via one shortcode:
- One-click reorder of any previous order
- The same conflict handling as the builder — no duplicate lines, no oversells
- Pagination, totals, and status badges that match your brand color
👥 Customer Roles — build wholesale tiers, no extra plugin
A built-in Role Manager under Volant B2B Manager → Roles.
- Create roles like “Wholesale” or “VIP Distributor” in one click — each is a safe permissions clone of a WooCommerce customer, never anything more
- Rename freely — the slug your rules key on stays stable
- Delete safely — members are migrated to a role you choose first; nobody is ever left role-less
- See who holds each role — expandable member panels with direct profile links
- Bulk assigner — search customers by name or email, tick any number, assign a tier in one action. Your own account and anyone who can edit content never even appear in the results, by design
- Uninstalling the plugin cleans up after itself: members move back to Customer and the roles are removed
Create as many roles as your pricing needs — there is no limit.
🏠 Role Homepages & Login Redirect
Show a different front page per customer role — swapped before the page query runs, so caching plugins and themes behave. Send buyers to their own homepage after login.
🔒 Privacy & data
- No tracking, no telemetry, no accounts. The one optional exception: the deactivation screen offers a feedback form that sends your answer to volantsoftware.com only if you tick consent and press send
- Data cleanup on uninstall is strictly opt-in (with the role cleanup described above)
- Translation-ready with a full
.pot template; HPOS and Blocks-checkout compatible
⬆ Volant B2B Manager Suite Pro
Pro extends the free core (it never replaces it — your lists, settings, and roles carry over untouched):
- Net payment terms at checkout with enforced per-customer credit limits
- Category access per role — gate catalog sections everywhere, including the builder
- Stock visibility per role — hide inventory levels from selected roles
- Kit Builder — sell bundles priced and stock-synced from their components
- Layouts — four orders-page layouts (Classic, Compact Table, Timeline, Cards Grid) and four BOM builder layouts including a print-ready Quote Sheet
- BOM-to-order linking, edit-first reorders, and a buyer stats panel

External services
This plugin sends one optional request to an external service, and nothing else.
Deactivation feedback (optional, opt-in). When you deactivate the plugin, a feedback form appears. If you press “Submit & Deactivate”, your chosen reason, any details you typed, and the plugin version are sent to Volant Software’s feedback endpoint at volantsoftware.com. Your email address and your site URL are included only if you tick the consent box. Pressing “Skip & Deactivate” (or closing the form) sends nothing. The form itself can be disabled with the volant_b2b_manager_deactivation_feedback_enabled filter.
