Our client provides training sessions that can be booked by individuals or by a corporate rep for their staff. The client needs to be able to offer Purchase Order as a payment option ONLY for selected corporate clients, not to all attendees/applicants.
Please advise how this can be done. This is a deal breaker! All suggestions appreciated.
Thanks,

How are you distinguishing between the corporate clients and the rest? Is it a question on the registration form or are they logged in as site members?

Our client (they’re a Registered Training Organisation so lets call them RTO), wants to limit the Purchase Order (PO) payment option to selected corporate clients so the attendee customer will have to be an existing site member and will need to complete a form to apply/register for the option of using Purchase Order as a payment option. RTO will then approve the request.
The next part is unknown – how the attendee customer is recorded as having Purchase Order privileges. Suggestions? All welcome with thanks!
PS Thanks also for the super quick response! We’re in Australia so we don’t usually get such awesome turnaround due to time difference.

Then make a copy of gateways/purchase_order in uploads/espresso/gateways, then edit the init.php file, wrapping the code in a conditional, checking if the current user has the purchase_order capability (http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/current_user_can
