Overview of sellEbit
To demonstrate what sellEbit can do we use a fictitional company, The
Queanbeyan Farm Cooperative which uses a heirarchy of product
codes, an important concept in sellEbit.
The sellEbit system processes Emails from a payment gateway. The main
type is orders from customers, but donations and purchases are also
handled.
While the processing may initially
seem complicated, it will take you about an hour to set the system
up
for your company with the aid of the supplied manual. If you have
problems ask the company that helped set up your web site or a friend.
The Emails are simply put into the INPUT folder. A sellEbit process
watches the folder and:
- Extracts the data from the mail
using defined text strings for
the
various gateways and
- inserts the transaction information into the database.
- Sends a receipt to the customer or
donor.
- Sends an acknowledgement to
the customer or donor.
- Sends a licence file
if the customer purchased a software licence.
- Sends an attachment if the customer purchased digital data.
- Displays new sales in a list
of orders to be filled.
- Displays a log so you know what is
happening.
- Archives processed mail and places
problem mail into an error folder.
The transactions stored in the database enable you to review your
business
