B2B Marketplace Administrator's Guide

B2B Marketplace offers robust product catalog management within SAP Business One, using InterConnect Manager Add-On. This Admin Guide walks through the setup of your web catalog, including web products collections.

Audience

B2B Marketplace Setup consists of two audiences:

Configuration for early store set-up tasks. Typically these tasks are of the “set it and forget it” variety. For example, preferred store layout, shipping types, default settings, etc.
Administration of web catalog including web products and collections. Typically these tasks are ongoing and require updates as product offerings change (either through DTW data load, or through manual updates using InterConnect Manager Add-On).

This Administrator’s Guide focuses on ongoing Administration tasks.

For early store setup tasks, see B2B Marketplace Configuration Guide.
