Behind the implementation
The details we work through with your team.
The service starts with your business rules, not a generic feature list. These are the operating decisions that shape the specification, configuration, and testing for your project.
Built around real channel rules
A B2B dealer portal should do more than hide content behind a login. M2B Commerce maps dealer tiers, company users, account terms, territory rules, quote paths, catalog permissions, purchasing authority, and support workflows before build decisions are made. That separates a useful account system from a generic storefront with restricted access.
Designed to reduce manual ordering work
The portal should help dealers find approved products, use customer part numbers, see account pricing, build repeat orders, request quotes when needed, supply purchase-order details, and understand fulfillment status. Those workflows only reduce service effort when the same rules continue through ERP validation, inventory checks, order review, and shipment communication.
Useful for dealers and usable for internal teams
A good portal should make your dealers faster without making sales, finance, warehouse, or customer service clean up the order later. That means your requirements need downstream handoffs, exception paths, and the data each team needs to trust the order.
Reviewed intake can support service work
When dealers still send RFQs, attachments, or support questions outside the portal, intake workflows can help structure requests and summarize context. The portal plan should decide where those suggestions are reviewed before they become quotes, orders, or customer promises.

- User roles inside dealer accounts
Ordering rules
What makes a dealer order complete enough to move downstream without a customer service review on every transaction?

- Required order data and approvals
Status visibility
Which order, fulfillment, and shipment events should dealers see without needing to call or email your team?
- Order history and reorder paths
- Inventory and allocation signals
- Shipment and delivery updates
Reviewed intake
Where could intake workflows structure dealer RFQs, attachments, and service questions while preserving human review for pricing, product fit, substitutions, and order commitments?
