Navigating the Customer Portal

The customer portal is main dashboard for all b2b customers, and a login destination.

This page can be customized by the shop owner, so its contents might be different than what is shown on this help page.

By default, it contains modules that link to functionality of customer interest, such as links to available assortements, invoices, or information about orders, subscriptions and events.

Accessing the Customer Portal

By default login setting, customers will always arrive on this page after logging into their account. Note that this is a preference that can be customized by the shop owner and for each individual account.

If you prefer to navigate via URL, your-shop.domain/b2b_platform will lead to the customer portal.

While using B2Bsellers functionality, you can always return to this page by clicking Dashboard, located in your account menu or on the navigation bar.

Accessing Functionality Linked From the Customer Portal

Note that the navigation bar can be fully customized by the shop owner and your shop's navigation bar might differ from this example.

You can access this by clicking "Cockpit" in the navigation bar, or by navigating to the URL /b2b_platform/cockpit

The account page shows your personal data, your assigned role inside the shop, and ways to log in.

You can access this by clicking "Account" in the navigation bar, by clicking "Your Profile" in the account menu, or by navigating to the URL /b2b_platform/account.

Role Setting

Role settings can only be edited by administrators of the given company.

For reulgar employees, you can choose and assign any role provided in the role settings.

If enabled by the shop owner, you can generate a personalized login link, which skips the need to log in using passwords, and can be bookmarked for quick access.

In order for the link to work, you need to have the setting "Yes, I want an individual login link" set to "True", as shown in this screenshot:

If you have multiple customers you're purchasing products for, you can skip the selection upon logging in by choosing anything other than "Company selectio with each login". You will then be always logged in as the selected customer upon logging in, and can switch to others as needed via the account menu.

You can choose any of the available options if you prefer to always be redirected to a specific page insetad.
