Account Manager / Contract Type Configuration

Objective

As a Venture, I want to configure in Seller Center how Sellers and the responsible Account Managers are connected. Furthermore, I want to configure who acquired the Seller or who is the buyer of products that are sold on a merchant’s behalf. Additionally, if different contract types are in place (e.g., special Marketplace types), this should also be configurable in Seller Center.

Pre-Requirements from Ventures Before Setup

  • Buyer: If such a setting exists in the Shop system as an attribute (of type “Dropdown”), please pass on this information using a TMLSD JIRA ticket to the Seller Center team. Please include the name of the attribute and the Seller Center ID that should be used.
  • Account / Acquisition Manager: Please create a ticket using a TMLSD project within JIRA that includes which users should be available as options. These will be added to the configuration account/settings/account_manager

Setup

The settings for buyer, Account Manager, Acquisition Manager, and contract type are only available on the Seller-level.

“Buyer Name”:

The displayed options in this setting for “Buyer Name” are based on the provided options of an according attribute from the Shop system.

For Rocket Labs: to activate the display, add the value Setting_Buyer within the “Fixed Value” field in the attribute configuration. This field can only be configured by Rocket Labs, which means a TMLSD ticket is needed for setup. Further information on attribute setup can be found here.
