Create a business account using WebSphere Commerce Accelerator (Enterprise)

Before creating a new business account for a buyer organization, the buyer organization must be created using the Organization Administration Console by the seller administrator. Also, at least one person associated with the buyer organization should be a registered customer, since a contact at the buyer organization is required when creating a business account.

To create a new business account:

  1. Open the WebSphere Commerce Accelerator.
  2. From the Sales menu, click Accounts.
    The Account List page displays, containing business accounts currently defined for the selected store. If you do not see this menu, then your logon ID does not have the appropriate authority to perform this task. Contact your Site Administrator.
  3. Click New. The Account notebook displays.
  4. Complete the fields for each page as required, and use the links on the left side to switch between pages.
  5. Click OK to save the business account and close the notebook. The business account is displayed in the Account List page.
