Approval groups
Create groups of business customers' employees who can approve purchases made by other buyers in their company. For the approval process you can use the admin, buyer or requester roles. As a customer you can also create new users and assign them with specific roles.
Approval validity
Set expiry dates for the approval requests.
Approval transparency
Relevant statuses are set automatically and reflect the state of the approval requests.
The Customer Management Service is primarily designed to bring information about your business customers close to where it is needed to manage your commerce channels. If your single source of truth about the customers is stored within a third-party-solution it can be integrated into our application.
