Shop-in-shop reseller, is this possible?

[Kuubs]

Hello,

I am wondering if I can set up some sort of reseller in Virtuemart? This means that the webshop product pages get a new logo, but they sell the same products in the backend. Eventually you'll checkout and the order goes through normally except the reseller gets also an email from the order itself, and in the backend you can see if products are sold via that reseller's website.

So for example the normal webshop is located at normalwebshop.com and the reseller account is located at normalwebshop.com/reseller

Reseller gets an email (as well as the normalwebshop.com owner) and in the administrator orders page you can see if the order is made on the reseller's website. Anyone know if this is possible?

Thank you, so the multivendor option is the solution here?

If i'm thinking out loud that would mean that I basically have to make different products and assign these products to the reseller so I have a product version for every reseller? I think I should test this out some more, because the page isn't that extensive regarding the explanation but I hope this can work out for me.

You have to play with the system and find a way of working that suits your setup. Everyone using MV seems to have different requirements.

I played a bit with the system but I have a couple of remarks.

If an order is made from a reseller it's not visible in the main vendor account. Can I change this?

And should it? Why?
You use multivednor == any vendor can't see orders from another vendor, isn't it?

You seem to look for some kind of inheritance. This is not the multivendor idea, there each manages its owns products.

Sounds more more like You want one stock and sell through resellers. Do not know how to accomplish right now.

But first make very good plan of how you are going to sell your products, then see if it possible to realize. Without planning You will fall on Your nose.

Yes that is exactly what I am looking for. I want a shared set of products, but i want to see in the backend which one of the reseller sold the product, so I guess which page the visitor was.. I guess I have to check out other plugins
