A wholesale buyer who orders the same core products every month should not have to browse your catalog each time. A quick order form turns a repeat purchase into a fast, predictable action.
This guide is for wholesalers wanting to speed up repeat ordering for buyers who know exactly what they want.
Quick Answer
Yes, Shopify supports reorder from past purchases natively on any paid B2B plan, and Wholesale Pricing Discount B2B builds on that with quick order tools tied to customer tags, manual and draft orders for assisted selling, and order limits or quantity increments for buyers who reorder in set units.
What Is a Quick Order Form?
A quick order form lets a wholesale buyer add products to a cart fast, often from a saved list or past order, skipping the browsing steps a first-time or retail shopper would go through.
Who Needs a Quick Order Form?
- Wholesale buyers who reorder the same core products regularly
- Distributors placing frequent, predictable repeat orders
- Sellers wanting to reduce order friction for high-volume accounts
- Businesses wanting products to reorder in set case pack quantities
- Sales teams assisting buyers who prefer to order by phone or email
Why Quick Order Forms Matter for Your Business
- Faster reordering increases repeat order frequency from existing accounts
- Fewer steps between deciding to order and completing checkout reduces abandonment
- Order increments matched to case packs reduce fulfillment errors
- Draft orders let staff place accurate orders for buyers who order by phone
- Predictable ordering builds buyer loyalty through a consistently easy process
- Reduced order friction supports higher average order value over time

How to Set Up Quick Order Forms on Shopify
Step 1: Prepare Your Store and Customer Tags
Identify which buyers reorder frequently enough to benefit from a dedicated quick order path.
- Review order history for accounts with frequent, repeat purchases
- Decide if quick order access should be tied to a specific customer tag
- Confirm product variants are set up cleanly for fast selection
Step 2: Install and Configure Wholesale Pricing Discount B2B
Install Wholesale Pricing Discount B2B to enable quick order tools tied to customer tags and support manual or draft orders for assisted selling.
- Connect the app and review plan options for draft order support
- Set order limits and quantity increments if products reorder in case packs
- Confirm inventory sync is active so quick orders reflect real stock
Step 3: Create the Pricing or Discount Rules
Pair the quick order form with correct wholesale pricing so buyers see accurate totals without manual adjustment.
- Confirm tiered pricing applies automatically within the quick order flow
- Set volume discounts if larger quick orders should qualify for better pricing
- Set order minimums if quick orders should only apply above a certain size
Step 4: Test With a Tagged Test Customer
Test the quick order path with a tagged test account, including a draft order if staff assist buyers.
- Place a test quick order and confirm pricing and quantities calculate correctly
- Create a test draft order on behalf of the test account
- Ask Sidekick which customers are in a specific tier group to confirm the quick order pricing matches expectations
Step 5: Go Live
Once testing confirms accuracy, roll out the quick order form to real buyers.
- Publish the quick order form to your live store
- Notify frequent reorder accounts of the new fast ordering option
- Monitor the first cycle of quick orders for accuracy
Quick Order Form Use Case
Bakery Supply Distributor (Foodservice)
Problem: Bakeries reordered the same flour and packaging products weekly but rebuilt their cart from scratch every time.
Setup: Enabled reorder from past purchases alongside tag-based quick order access.
Result: Weekly reorder time dropped significantly and order frequency increased.
Cleaning Product Wholesaler (Industrial goods)
Problem: Products sold in case packs of twelve, but buyers sometimes ordered odd quantities, complicating fulfillment.
Setup: Set order increments of twelve units to match case pack sizing through Wholesale Pricing Discount B2B.
Result: Orders arrived in full case packs, simplifying fulfillment and reducing partial-case handling.

Best Practices
- Reserve quick order access for accounts with genuine repeat order patterns
- Match order increments to actual case pack or shipping unit sizes
- Keep the quick order path pricing consistent with the standard storefront
- Test draft orders separately if staff regularly assist with phone orders
- Review reorder frequency data periodically to identify new quick order candidates
- Keep inventory sync active so quick orders never oversell stock
Summary
Quick order forms remove friction from repeat wholesale purchasing, turning a predictable reorder into a fast action instead of a full browsing session. Native reorder features cover the basics, and a dedicated app adds tag-based access and draft order support.
For quick order tools built around customer tags and assisted selling, try Wholesale Pricing Discount B2B.
