Thank you in advance for any thoughts on this project.


I need to setup an online store to sell memberships to a magazine. Products available in this store would include normal paper magazine memberships where orders would be fufilled by mailing the customer a magazine, but also online memberships where once a customer purchased an online membership they need to be able to sign in and can then download PDF versions of the magazine for the term of their subscription.



All I have come up with so far to handle this would require two instances of BV Commerce. The first would be a public site like any other store. When a cusotmer purchases an online membership, via workflow I would create a login and password to a second private site and would email the user that login and password information to their account on the private site. I would have to extend the private site functions a bit from base to support an expiration date for users, etc. I don't see any major issues there.



Can anyone think of a better way to do this? BV Folks, would this require two licenses? I guess I could extend the fucntionality of a single another ecommerce product to do this, the scenario above was dreamed up while half asleep.



Thanks -



Greg
