Customer ID and charge to account

[saynernz]

Hi there, I'm looking into PrestaShop as a solution for a client.

 

There's just one thing the client requires and I'm not sure how I can go about this.

 

Basically, the client already has a database of customers. What they want to do, when one of those clients signs up to their PrestaShop store, is assign the customer their own account number from the pre-existing database somehow. Then, when the customer goes through the checkout, they want the customer to be able to hit a "charge to account" button.

 

In the back office, the client wants to be able to see the order along with the account number (and the rest of the customer details).

 

From there, my client will handle the rest of the transaction.

 

Is this, or some variation, possible at all?

 

Thanks in advance!

Failing that.. is it possible to just have the checkout process proceed as normal, then you hit something called "Charge to Account" and then it creates the order in the backend of the shop, and displays to the customer a custom message (like "we will contact you regarding payment") without asking for payment online.

 

Sort of like the Cash on Delivery module.
