Packaging made specifically for one customer is visible and orderable only for that customer in ECOPLAN's B2B web shop. Other customers do not see these products. ### How do volume-based price tiers and call-off orders work in the shop? Volume-based price tiers adjust the price automatically to the quantity ordered. With call-off orders, customers call off agreed quantities from existing orders directly online. ECOPLAN has implemented both for Prodinger, among others. ### How quickly can a B2B web shop for packaging go live? At Prodinger, four months passed from project kickoff to go-live, with the complete range of functions instead of a minimal version. ### How can customers quickly reorder packaging in the B2B web shop? Packaging is a consumable, so reordering has to be especially easy. ECOPLAN builds solutions that let customers reorder recurring requirements with just a few clicks. In addition, ordering processes can be automated to a greater degree and linked with existing ERP processes. ### How do buyers find the right version in a packaging web shop with a large variety of variants? ECOPLAN provides products in many variants, searchable by filters and technical attributes. Digital product catalogs make extensive product ranges, variants, images, and documents accessible in a structured way. This makes products easier to find. ### How do orders from a packaging web shop reach the ERP without rework? ECOPLAN connects ERP and PIM directly, so nothing has to be maintained twice and orders flow into the ERP without manual rework. Product data, customer-specific prices and terms, availability, orders, and delivery information are taken from the existing systems. For rose plastic, ECOPLAN has supported the B2B web shop with SAP integration since 2020.
