How to Customize a Template

What you will achieve in this guide

Follow this step-by-step documentation to configure custom B2B registration forms, approval workflows, and customer tagging.

EXPECTED SETUP TIME 5-10 Minutes
COMPATIBILITY All Shopify Themes & Plans
TECHNICAL DIFFICULTY Zero Code Required

Customize a ready-made Shopify registration template by reviewing fields, validation, design, and approval settings before publication.


Before you begin

Choose the template that matches your audience, then inspect its questions, approval tags, and company-creation defaults. Decide which information your reviewer actually needs before adding more required questions.


Turn a starting point into your own form

Using a template creates a form you can edit. Adjust questions, option values, required fields, mappings, design, notifications, and approval settings to fit your process. The template is a shortcut to a sensible structure, not proof that its policy is right for your business.

Use a distinct internal name and slug, then remove questions your team never uses. If you change a question that a rule depends on, update the rule and test both matching and nonmatching applications.


Set up this workflow

  1. Open Templates and select the starting template.

  2. Select Use template to open its form builder.

  3. Enter a unique name and slug for your new form.

  4. Add, edit, reorder, or remove questions for your business.

  5. Review settings for design, notifications, approval tags, and company creation, then save.

  6. Preview and submit a test application before using the form with live customers.


Example

Use the Retailer / Stockist template, name it Demo Retailer Application, remove irrelevant questions, and add a sales-channel choice.

Expected result

The saved form asks only the questions your review team uses.


Limits and important behavior

  • A template is a starting point, not an approval policy.
  • Check conditional logic and approval rules after changing template fields.
  • Do not duplicate unnecessary customer contact questions.

Troubleshooting and verification

If the form collects responses but does not grant wholesale access, inspect the application status and after-approval settings. A template supplies a starting configuration; pricing, catalogs, and access in your other tools still need their own setup.


Screenshots to add

Screenshot placeholder: Capture the relevant app screen for “How to Customize a Template” after completing the setup. Show the controls used to open Templates and select the starting template. Add a second screenshot showing the result of this check: Preview and submit a test application before using the form with live customers. Use dummy applicant details and mask any secrets.
