New features in 4.0: More power for your B2B
While we've removed ballast, we've also added powerful new features that simplify and speed up your everyday B2B business.
available
AI support
The digital assistant recognizes purchasing patterns, suggests proactive customer handling, and even creates sales emails.
available
Barcode-Scanner
Transfer products directly to quick order or offer via scan – fast, easy, without detours.
available
Select individual products in the shopping cart
Finally available in B2B: Decide at checkout which items to purchase and which to save in your shopping cart.
available
Discount Matrix
Flexibly combine, prioritize, and stagger discounts—exactly as complex B2B pricing logic requires.
soon
Employee budgets
Budgets are calculated precisely for each position—for projects, departments, or categories.
soon
Order approval workflows
Completely redesigned – easier to control, more flexible for complex rules.
soon
Messages for offers & approvals
Bundle all conversations centrally in the self-service portal.
Add-on plugin coming soon
Catalog export (Datanorm, CSV...)
Exports with complex pricing and discount logic.
available
Revised UI/UX
Clearer interface, better user guidance, optimized performance.
available
Install partner plugins directly in the admin panel
Activate compatible add-ons (e.g., Batteryincluded, Punchcommerce) without any detours.
available
Version check in Admin
Always in view: Are you using the latest version? Now visible directly in the admin panel.
New: Easily install compatible extensions in Admin
Three features remain part of the B2Bsellers Suite but are no longer directly included in B2BsellersCore (technically).
Instead, you can now easily Add via the admin with just one click– without complicated installation.
📅 external extension
B2B Event Manager
Many companies still use Excel to manage training courses and instruction. With our Event Manager, this can be done digitally: participant management, certificates, downloads, and reminder emails—all directly in the portal. The Event Manager is no longer part of the core, but can be activated immediately as an extension.
🔗 external extension
OCI & CXML plugins
E-procurement is indispensable for many B2B companies. To improve maintainability, we have removed OCI & CXML from the core. Both extensions are now external plugins – additional punchout and e-procurement extensions are also available.
🔎 Add-on
BatteryIncluded On-site Search
Lightning-fast, integrated search with facets and synonyms for B2B catalogs.
🔗 Add-on
Punchcommerce OCI & cXML
Seamless punchout connection to e-procurement via OCI & cXML.

B2C/B2B Context Switch→ Better alternatives in the Shopware Store

Conclusion: 4.0 makes B2B easier, faster, and future-proof
With version 4.0, we have consistently further developed the B2Bsellers Suite:
Streamlining of the B2Bsellers Suite Core to ensure stability and updateability.
Functions outsourced that remain activated with a single click.
New features developed that make B2B commerce truly smarter.
We are convinced that 4.0 is the most advanced version of the B2Bsellers Suite to date—and the foundation for everything that is yet to come.
