Contingents

This component is managed in the company module, direct link to the company module: my-shop.de/b2bcompany.

Contingents are used to limit the ability to order without clearance for specific contact accounts or whole roles. The B2B-Suite defaults to disallow all direct orders and put them into the clearance process.

A contingent group is a container for a specific rule set.

Add contingent groups

In the contingent module you can create new contingent groups by clicking on the "Create contingent group" button. After submitting the form you will be forwarded to the contingent detail page.

Add contingent rules

After creating the contingent group you can define corresponding rules. You have to set Contingent rules in Order to allow contacts to direct order or clear orders themselves.

There are three types of rules that can be configured.

• Order amount
• Order item quantity
• Order quantity

The rules supports three types of restrictions:

Restriction Types

Order amount

Handles the maximum order amount net per time unit.

Order item quantity

Handles the maximum quantity of products per time unit.

Order quantity

Handles the maximum allowed orders per time unit.

Add contingent restrictions

A contingent restriction disallows orders that are otherwise whitelisted through the contingents rule set. Currently you can directly disable products from certain categories or their subcategories. Also are restrictions based on product price and product ordernumber available.

Contingent group deletions

To remove contingent groups you can use the trash button to delete the selected group which is no longer required.
