With a main account you can choose to set the notifications to organization or personal level. If you set it to personal level, only the account manager will receive the notification and can approve the order.

Once everything has been entered satisfactorily, click on Continue.

In the next step, you can fill in what supply the customer sees. For example, you have the option of whether the customer may order direct sales and/or clock presales.

First, you choose which product groups the end customer may see. This is the same for direct sales and clock pre-sales.

For Direct sales you have the following options:

  • Sales unit: here you determine the purchase unit of the customer, so he can order per container, layer or load carrier.

  • Delivery location: here you set the delivery location where you want to receive the customer's orders.

In Clock pre-sales you have the following options:

  • Visible supply: here you choose from which locations the end customer may buy. When you click on one of the locations you can also enter the plate number associated with the location.

  • Show A1 quality group; when checked, only products of quality group A1 are shown to the end customer.

In addition, you can set which delivery days the customer can choose when ordering. This involves deliveries up to the box.

Finally, you can set price markups. These are divided under Direct sales and Clock pre-sales:

  • Percentage markup: Increase the price per piece percentage-wise

  • Load carrier markup: Price markup based on the space occupied on a load carrier

  • Fixed transaction costs: Increase the price per piece with a fixed transaction fee per order line
