Buyer Approval Details page (B2B)

The Buyer Approval Details page displays the requesting buyer's personal details and organization details. Buyer Administrators for a B2B organization can view the buyer's details before deciding whether to approve a buyer.

The Organization Details section displays the organization under which the buyer is registering. The organization defines the contract terms and conditions to which the buyer is entitled. Buyer Administrators can add a comment to the page and then choose to approve or reject the buyer.
Note: Buyers are not automatically notified when their request is approved or rejected.
