A wholesale portal should let a logged-in buyer export their own account price list, the same prices they already see when they buy. Week one on Parcel Build is that first working version: a scoped CSV or spreadsheet for known accounts, without a full catalog syndication project. You own the code. Flat monthly. See custom software for wholesalers. If buyer export of their wholesale price list is the gap, start a free 30-day build.
What belongs in a week-one buyer price-list export (and what stays out)?
Week one can cover a download of the live matrix for the signed-in account: SKU, description, and the prices that buyer already sees online. Full product data feeds for every channel, competitor price engines, and open catalog dumps can wait until that path earns its keep.
On Parcel Build, week one is a first working version of that path. Flat monthly. You own the code.
Why emailing stale PDF price books creates wrong POs and support tickets
Buyers keep last quarter's PDF. They build a PO from old numbers. Inside sales fields tickets when the portal price no longer matches the book. Rework starts because the export was a static file someone emailed once, not the live matrix on the account.
A scoped buyer export of the prices they already see keeps internal buying and AP on the same list the portal uses at order time.
What stays out of month one
Defer full product data feeds for every channel. Defer competitor price engines. Defer open catalog dumps that expose other accounts. Month one is a scoped export of the signed-in buyer's live price matrix.
FAQ
Is a buyer price-list export the same as a customer-specific catalog?
No. A customer-specific catalog controls which products the buyer can browse and buy. A price-list export downloads the prices that account already sees. They can sit together later. Week one can prove export without cloning full catalog personalization as the primary path.
Does week one need admin bulk import tools, or is buyer download of the live matrix enough to start?
Buyer download of the live matrix is enough to start. Week one can let the signed-in account export what they already see. Admin bulk import tools can wait until that path earns its keep.
