    Hello fellow wordpress users,

    I would like to build the following wordpress + woocommerce based platform:

    We are a working clothes business.

    It’s a website designed for 1 mother company which has 14 subcompany’s. The person using the website should be able to buy working clothes for all of their employees on this website. So there is only one active user ordering clothes.

    However, we would like to import all employees, and their corresponding clothes sizes.

    Every company has their own employees and available clothing, that won’t be a problem, i’ll use restricted categories for that.

    So if the purchaser visits the website he will be able to do the following:

    – Choose which of the 14 company’s to buy clothes for
    – Choose which person to buy clothes for
    – Select which clothes to buy

    And then afterwards we will receive the order together with the employees name.

    I tried to be as clear as possible in my explanation, i hope someone can help me. Maybe a combination of plugins will do the trick.

    Definiltey possible, will take some customization on the “employee selection and sizes” front though.

    Here are a few things to consider:

    WooCommerce doesn’t work at the network level of a multi-site. So you’ll either need to have all products on one main site, or WooCommerce installed individually on all 14 sites.

    Then you’ll need to import all employees. Does each employee need to log in? If not, then I would perhaps use a custom post type for the employees. where you just store the name and their sizes. Otherwise, you can import them as WP users with custom user meta for their sizes.

    And lastly, you’ll need something custom where the current logged in user can select an “employee” and have that selection affect products that are shown.
