Using the Magento 2 Order Approval Manager Extension
- Magento 2 Customer Approval Process – Provide companies with the ability to approve orders before purchasing.
- Support Non-Paying Customers – If the person who uses the product is not the person who will pay for, our Magento 2 customer approval extension is the easy way to provide the ability to support submitting the order without making an actual payment.
- Complete the B2B process – The B2B buying process differs from B2C stores. Each purchase needs to be approved and usually the person who needs the product is not the person who pays for it. Our Magento 2 order manager extension makes this process easier.
