Active vs Inactive status

Every Company has a status toggle in the General tab.
Active
Contacts inherit the company's tier tag and get wholesale pricing at checkout
Inactive
Contacts kept on file but tier tag is NOT applied — they don't get wholesale pricing
The status is a soft on/off switch for the company's wholesale benefit. Contacts and address data are preserved; only the tag-sync behavior changes.
You're temporarily pausing a B2B account (late payment, suspended account, off-season)
You want to keep the company on file for record-keeping but don't want them buying at wholesale rates
You're testing a new company setup before going live
Existing contacts' tier tag is removed from Shopify customers
They lose access to wholesale pricing immediately at next checkout
The Customer Group's member list no longer includes these contacts (until reactivated)
Contacts can still log in to their Shopify customer account — they just see regular retail prices
Tier tag is re-applied to all contacts
They regain wholesale pricing automatically
They reappear in the Customer Group's member list
The daily reconcile job (which syncs Company contacts → Customer Group members) explicitly skips inactive companies. That's intentional — inactive means "tier should NOT apply".
If you reactivate a company that's been inactive for a while, the reconcile job picks them up the next day. To re-sync immediately, save the company once after flipping status (the in-app code path re-applies the tag).
