Sales Agent

With version 6.5.0.0 the Sales Agent feature is available.

You can define users, that will be able to add or monitor orders for B2B customers.

To use this feature, a separate installation and additional users are necassary. The installation has to be set up by your agency or adminstrator on a separate server.

The sales agents therefore have their own area, which can be used independently of your store installation.

This can be used via a browser or via mobile devices such as smartphones or tablets.

The corresponding address (URL) is defined on the corresponding server during installation.

The access data for future users is set up via API access.

You can find the corresponding documentation here.

The sales agent uses his login credentials (email / password) to login.
