Hi, Is there a way to customize item list in plp? I would like to change item list with saved search based on customer in plp

I'm not sure, but you might loose the indexing feature of SCA if you will display the items from a saved search in PLP
How about like creating a custom fields(maybe sourcing from the customers) in Item records and use it as filtering/facets (I'm just thinking from my head, I am not sure if it will work)

which module handles item source list so that I could customize?

I'm not sure exactly what you're saying here. Is it that you want to show a list of products like a commerce category or search result but based on the results of a saved search? If so, the answer is that you could probably do this in SCA but it would probably be quite difficult in SC. It probably won't be easy but you would need to re-use modules in Facets. Alternatively, it may be easier to set up the items to use some sort of filtering facet like a custom field. That way you could just set up a link to return all items that have that field set to true or some other relevant value.

yes, I would like to show list of products from saved search result
but it's not like one saved search
some saved searches based on customer
actually, it will be based on product category not only plp but also search result on website
is it possible?

Well, as I said, it is possible to fetch product information from a saved search (https://developers.suitecommerce.com/integrate-a-saved-search-into-a-web-store-customization.html) but integrating it into a PLP will be a bit more difficult. If it's going to be used on a SuiteCommerce site, I would advise against it as I think it would be too complicated for an SC extension.
