Cheat sheet for CE testers

 

Initiating transactions

CE will continue to initiate transactions within the CE Request System, by entering a specific bill to customer and contact. However, instead of creating a specific workflow request for each distinct type of transaction (030, 070, etc.), CE will open a single generic request type which will enable them to preform any of the transactions that are on the web. Once they select the generic request type, Avante will pass that contact's credentials to the website, logging the CE operator into the website as the contact, but with special CE privileges.  If the customer is requesting more than one transaction at a time - for example, a stock sales order and a new quote - CE will be able to initiate this with one request.

For example, in the scenario illustrated below, Sandy Lee from Acme Plastics has called CE. CE operator Michael opens a request; he enters Acme's and Sandy's info. Because Sandy is requesting Michael to perform one of the transactions now on the web, he then selects the generic web request type (shown) which logs him into web as Sandy (shown):

 

 

From this point on, Michael can carry out any of the ten transaction types listed above.
