Userid vs. customer name vs. billto name

b2b requirements



I agree 100% with Ken,
as a b2b owner.

Bill To:Company is best choice for B2B merchants.

Is there a way to give synchro users an option or choice
of which Key Customer Identifier they would like to use?
This would be the best solution if programmable.
This is an important issue.

b2b requirements



Business-to-business merchants do not regard the individual customer (by
name) as the key customer identifier. The customer identifier for any
business-to-business transaction is the business or business branch that is
purchasing.

If Joe Austin at Miva orders a print job from us, the invoice in Quickbooks
will be associated with Miva, Inc. rather than Joe. If Joe, Timothy Sutton,
and Rick Wilson each place an order per week using Net 30, the balance will
be associated with Miva, Inc. No business would maintain 3 seperate accounts
receivable balances in this case.

If ModStop could pull that off with their Quickbooks Import module (although
other parts did not work), then I know you guys can do it so that b2b
companies can do business though Miva Merchant. While b2b is not your
largest segment, it's an area where you can have the least competition.

If it's up for a vote, I suggest that it be a configuration option
because as soon as you do something to please one user, you'll upset
others! Reasonable flexibility should be the guideline.



Thanks,
