IQ Retail and B2B ecommerce, explained
How does B2B ecommerce connect to IQ Retail?
An IQ Retail B2B ecommerce integration gives trade customers and franchisees a portal with their IQ price levels, branch stock, statements and order status, and turns portal orders into IQ Retail documents.
IQ Retail + B2B ecommerce
How can franchise groups on IQ Retail use a B2B portal?
Franchise groups often run IQ Retail at head office and in stores, with franchisees ordering stock from the central warehouse. A B2B portal replaces emailed order sheets: franchisees order from a catalogue with their price level, see warehouse stock and track deliveries, and each order becomes an IQ document at head office. Ordering becomes consistent across stores and much easier to report on.
