In the My WebOrder section of WebOrder.biz

1. Log in your seller account and go to the Products section;
2. Select the product to change go to the page Edit local properties;
3. Change the option Ordering allowed and click OK.

By default, the box is checked when creating a product.

Setting the tax regime of your buyers Newsletter #34

A tax must usually be applied by the seller to the amount of a sale transaction.
Two main factors modulate the application of this tax.

• The tax status of the seller and the buyer;
• The respective location of the seller and the buyer.

Now you can specify on the form of each of your buyers, the tax regime to be applied at the conclusion of a sale.

Click My WebOrder on the WebOrder.biz home page

1. Connect your seller account and follow Buyers > Accounts;
2. Select the account of buyer to change;
3. Clic Firm and select the appropriate tax regime;
4. Click OK to save your changes.

Important !

• If a buyer adds products to his shopping cart before logging in (ie, user not identified by WebOrder), the scheme being implemented at the conclusion of the sale is the default tax regime in the country of the seller.
• A logged in buyer can change its own tax regime as long as his profile is open.

The global products directory Newsletter # 32

The home page of WebOrder.biz now includes a global directory of products. This directory is called "global" because it may contain any product (good or service) created in WebOrder

• The global directory has three levels of classification. The list showed under the title Categories of the home page includes all the entries of the first classification level.
  
  
• The seven products, last created in WebOrder and added to the global directory, are listed in reverse chronological order on the WebOrder.biz home page. Each product form of this list contains the summarized profile of the organisation offering the product. It also shows the links to each point of sale of the organisation in which the product is available.
  
  
• By default, a newly created product is not added to the global directory. To automatically include a product in the directory, simply adjust the product profile by selecting, for at least the first classification level, the category in which it must be present (Step 3 of the product edition wizard : Classification in the products directory). If the product is one of the seven products last created in WebOrder, it will also appear in the "Last added products" list on the WebOrder.biz home page.
