B2B view of the Organization Administration Console

If we are a Buyer Administrator, Buyer Approver, Seller Administrator, or Site Administrator working with a B2B store, we can perform specific tasks in the Organization Administration Console according to your role.

As a convenient alternative to using the Organization Administration Console, Buyer Administrators and Buyer Approvers can perform almost all of their administration and approval tasks in Aurora starter store pages. For details, see the notes and links in the Tasks column of the following table.

Note: Buyer Administrators can perform all tasks marked with an asterisk (*) directly in Aurora starter store pages. See Organization and buyer administration flows (B2B). Note the following additional differences between capabilities in the Aurora storefront compared to the Organization Administration Console:

  • In the Aurora storefront, order approvals are scoped to the store that the Buyer Administrator or Buyer Approver is signed into. In the Organization Administration Console, order approvals are site-wide.

  • In the Aurora storefront, Buyer Administrators can select only two member approval groups for an organization: order approvals and buyer (user registration) approvals. In the Organization Administration Console, all approval groups are available for selection.

Buyer Approver

  • Approvals

  • Help

  • Search for, view, approve, and reject order approval requests.
    For each organization, order approvals can be enabled or disabled. If order approvals are disabled, the Buyer Approver role is not required.

Note: Buyer Approvers can search for, view, approve, and reject order approval requests directly in Aurora starter store pages. See Order approval flows.
