Pricelist-Based Product Visibility
Advanced eCommerce module that restricts product visibility based on customer pricelists. Perfect for B2B businesses requiring tiered product access and exclusive pricing strategies.
- Pricelist-Based Access Control: Restrict product visibility based on customer's assigned pricelist
- Product-Level Configuration: Assign allowed pricelists at both product template and variant levels
- Automatic 404 Redirect: Inaccessible products return 404 error when accessed directly
- Cart Validation: Prevents checkout with inaccessible products
- Variant-Level Priority: Variant restrictions override template settings
- Visual Indicators: Clear badges and alerts for inaccessible products in cart
- Publish Validation: Prevents publishing products without assigned pricelists
- Session Cache Fix: Corrects Odoo's native pricelist session caching bug
Product Configuration
Assign allowed pricelists to products and variants
Navigate to: Sales â Products â Select Product â Sales Tab â "Allowed Pricelists" field
Products must have at least one pricelist assigned to be published on the website
Product Template Level
Base configuration that applies to all variants. If no variant-level restrictions exist, template settings determine visibility.
Variant Level (Priority)
Overrides template settings. Perfect for restricting specific product variations (size, color) to certain customer segments.
Customer Pricelist
System automatically detects customer's pricelist and shows/hides products accordingly. Public users see only public pricelist products.
Cart Validation
Automatic detection of inaccessible products
Clear warning messages with affected product list. Checkout buttons are automatically disabled.
Visual Product Badges
Clear indicators for inaccessible products
"Producto not available" badges appear next to inaccessible items with simplified removal option.
Variant-Level Control
Fine-grained access per product variation
Assign different pricelists to different variants of the same product template
Publish Validation
Prevent publishing without pricelist assignment
Clear error message preventing product publication without at least one pricelist assigned
B2B Tiered Product Access
Scenario: Wholesale distributor with Bronze, Silver, and Gold tier customers needing access to different product catalogs
Solution: Create pricelists for each tier, assign to customers, and configure products to be visible only to specific tiers. Gold tier sees premium products, Bronze sees basic catalog.
Regional Product Availability
Scenario: International company with products only available in specific countries due to regulations
Solution: Create pricelists per region, assign to customers based on location, restrict product visibility accordingly.
Exclusive Product Launches
Scenario: New product launch with VIP pre-order access for premium customers only
Solution: Assign new products to VIP pricelist initially, gradually expand visibility to other pricelists after launch period.
Contract Manufacturing
Scenario: Manufacturer with custom products developed exclusively for specific clients
Solution: Create client-specific pricelists and assign custom products only to those pricelists. Products remain invisible to other customers.
Variant-Specific Restrictions
Scenario: Clothing brand where certain sizes or colors are exclusive to premium retailers
Solution: Apply variant-level pricelist restrictions to limit specific size/color combinations to premium customer segments.
Membership-Based Access
Scenario: Association with different membership levels accessing different product catalogs
Solution: Link membership levels to pricelists, products automatically visible based on member's pricelist.
Wholesale Distribution
Tiered customer access, volume-based product visibility, exclusive dealer products
Fashion & Apparel
Exclusive collections for VIP clients, size/color restrictions per retailer tier
Technology & Electronics
Beta product access for select partners, regional availability restrictions
Food & Beverage
Wholesale vs retail pricing, restaurant supply chain management
Industrial Equipment
Dealer-specific catalogs, authorized reseller product access
Gift & Premium
Corporate gift catalogs per client tier, seasonal product access
| Mistake | Consequence | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Publishing without pricelists | Error message, can't publish | Always assign at least one pricelist |
| Forgetting to assign pricelist to customer | Customer sees no products | Verify customer pricelist assignment in customer form |
| Overriding incorrectly at variant level | Variant invisible unexpectedly | Check both template and variant settings |
| Session cache issues | Wrong products showing | Module automatically fixes this, clear browser cache if issues persist |
Q: Can a product be visible to multiple pricelists?
A: Yes! Select multiple pricelists in the field. Product will be visible to customers with ANY of those pricelists.
Q: What happens if I remove all pricelists from a published product?
A: The product will still be published but invisible to everyone. You'll need to reassign pricelists to make it visible again.
Q: Can public users (not logged in) see products?
A: Only if there's a public pricelist assigned to the product and configured for public users.
Q: How do variant restrictions work with template restrictions?
A: Variant settings take priority. If variant has pricelists assigned, those override template settings completely.
Q: What happens to existing carts when product restrictions change?
A: The system checks at checkout. If restricted products are in cart, checkout is blocked with clear warning.
Q: Can I make products visible to ALL customers?
A: Yes! Assign ALL pricelists to the product, or create a "Public" pricelist assigned to all customers.
Q: Does this affect backend sales orders?
A: No, restrictions only apply to eCommerce website. Backend users can still sell any product.
