Set up Catalogs

Create a catalog

You can create a catalog from the Catalogs section of your Shopify admin. There’s no limit to the number of catalogs that you can create in your store. However, each company location can have a maximum of 25 catalogs assigned to it.

When you create a catalog, you can select the products that have the catalog pricing applied to them, and then assign the catalog to a company that the wholesale customer is associated with.

Assign a catalog to a company

After you create a catalog, you can assign it to the B2B companies that you sell to. You can assign up to 25 catalogs to each company location. You can assign a catalog to a company from the Catalogs section of your Shopify admin, or in the company's profile.

Steps:

From your Shopify admin, go to Products > Catalogs.
Click the catalog that you want to assign companies to.
In the Companies section, do either of the following:
- To assign a catalog to an existing company, click the Edit icon > Add locations. Click the checkbox next to the companies that you want to add, and then click Add.

Assigning multiple catalogs to the same company location

If you assign multiple catalogs to the same company location, then the following applies when B2B on Shopify displays prices to your B2B customers:

If the catalogs include different products, then all products from each catalog are displayed.
If the catalogs assigned to the same company location include the same product at different prices, then your B2B store displays the lowest set price for that item, not including quantity rules or volume pricing breaks.
- For example, you have a B2B customer with access to two catalogs. In one catalog, the price of a particular candle is set at $9. In the other catalog, the price of that item is set to $7. When the customer visits your store, they're offered that candle at a price of $7.
Your store displays quantity rules and volume pricing from the catalog with the lowest price per variant.
If two catalogs have the same lowest price for a product, then the quantity rules and volume pricing from the first catalog that was created are displayed.
