Features
Below are some conversation starters for a B2B ecommerce functional specification discussion.
B2B organizations & user business logic
- Are there multiple user types? What are they?
- What are each user type permissions (e.g. budget or buying authority)?
- Are there any organizations that users accounts belong to (e.g. school, small business, enterprise)?
- What are the organization types? How do they differ from each other (e.g. manufacturer, retailer, consumer)?
- Are there multiple users per organization or single user only?
- Is the user sign up open to anyone or is it invite based only? Who sends the invites?
- Is there a new user validation / moderation / approval workflow? What are the user account states? Who has permissions to change those states?
- Is there an additional billing contact to share invoices with, but without login permissions?
B2B pricing, purchasing, payments
- Are prices or any other parts of the website hidden from the general public, available only to signed in users? What is your entitlements policy?
- Does the pricing vary between organization or user types?
- What is your discount policy?
- What payment methods are available to which user and organization types?
- Are there any delayed payment “on terms” or “purchase order” transactions allowed for certain organization or user types?
- Would you like to offer quick order or repeat order functionality?
- Would you like to allow orders with split shipments delivered to multiple locations
- Would you like to provide personalized organization or user themes?
