A wholesale client has asked that order confirmation emails go to the sales dept and invoice emails go to the bookkeeping dept. |

You can create a new workflow task to send another email. How would you store the two email addresses during checkout?

This client is a user and member of a price group, any possibility for creating a cc: addy somewhere? We split name (first name/last name) into two feilds, why not email-1 (for order confirms and ship notifications) and email-2 (for billing and shipping/receiving dept)?
This can get out of hand... two lists of email drop-downs would be needed to keep it all straight on the order edit pages. Checkout page instructions for the shopper would have to be pretty clear - which addy was for what correspondence. A workflow step is also required I would assume.
Think outside the box and we'll have something that other carts don't offer.
Flexibility in on-line communications is as important in business as having a phone in your pocket, even more sometimes. BVC is very rigid in this area, as are most small-scale carts.
More and more small firms are going to embrace on-line sales/inventory/S&H systems in the future. B2B is a big part of commerse and we can't all go to SAP or IBM. There's an opening here, Marcus.
I had a wholesaler ask me today if he built a BVC store, could he hook up to my database and sell some of my products. People are thinking.... |
