Sotheby's.B2B 2.1.0: Updating the Counterparty's Merchant Profile

Welcome to the 1C-Bitrix community!

We are pleased to present the update for Sotheby's: B2B — one of our key solutions, which you have long known as a powerful tool for B2B sales.

In the update, we added:

• Adding products by article number.

• Create order templates from the shopping cart or existing orders.

• Displays the weight and volume of products in the shopping cart.

• Video in the product card.

• Export a catalog with product grouping

• Linking documents to user groups

• Flexible configuration of the price list with the possibility of extra charges and saving parameters

Let's get to the details.

When you need to add items to your shopping cart, especially if they are frequently ordered items, the process may take longer than you would like. To simplify the task, we have implemented the function of adding products by article. Now you can quickly find the right products and add them to your shopping cart in just a couple of steps, saving time and effort.

Companies that work with recurring orders face the need to re-fill in all the data, which takes time and increases the risk of errors. This functionality automates the process of repeated orders, reducing the load on employees and minimizing the likelihood of errors, which saves working time.

For many companies, it is important to quickly calculate logistics costs. This function provides the user with accurate information about the weight and volume of goods directly in the basket, which helps to plan transportation, the amount of transport required for cargo transportation, and more accurately calculate delivery costs.

The product selection process requires more information than just a text description. For certain types of products, it may be important for the buyer to see a video presentation of the product before purchasing.

The ability to view video files from product properties directly in the product profile saves users time, improves their experience with the site, and makes the decision-making process more informed and convenient.

Users who work with large amounts of data often face difficulties when processing uploaded product information. The new functionality structures data during export, which makes it easier to use, analyze, and transfer data to other departments or partners.

The issue of security and access control to documents is always relevant. The new functionality allows you to restrict access to important documents by granting it only to certain groups of users. This not only solves the problem of information leakage, but also increases the level of responsibility and control within the company.

It is important for companies to adapt price lists for different purposes, whether for internal use or for customers. Now you can create a price list that perfectly matches your tasks.

Set up a mark-up or mark-down on products – for individual items or the entire product range. Specify the number of products, select the appropriate columns, and add the company name, contacts, logo, title, and introductory text.

All settings are saved automatically, saving you time and simplifying your work!
