B2C - Users should not be allowed to view pricing until registered

[Former Member]

Greetings all,

We have a very wierd user requirement.

The business does not want to show any list price of the product to the users when they are browsing in the B2C shop.

Only when they register and are B2B customers, do they want to show the list prices and contract pricing.

In the B2C shop management, for parameter "Controlling Price Determination in the Catalog" we are using "via IPC" as the check.

So basically the question is :

With our current set-up - In B2C how can we "NOT SHOW" any price of the products.

Correct answers will be gracefully rewarded with points

Thanks, USD

Hi USD,

If I understand your requirement then you do not want to display price for unregistered customer.

My question "How you would know that current person who is browsing your catalog is not your registered customer?"

When Customer try to login at that time you will know about customer registration.

So you can check if customer is not login (i.e. login status is not OK) do not show price.

You have to check login status if user is not logged in do not show price.

I think it will help you to resolve your issue.
