Order backbone
An order opens against permission, stock and price. Duplicate records and phone confirmation drop. This is not a separate order product; it is where the B2B record is born.

B2B software
B2B software unifies dealer and corporate order, stock, price and permission. Shopsoft builds that backbone around the company, not a package.

Direct answer
What is B2B software?
Request a meetingB2B software is the enterprise system that unifies company-to-company sales: order, stock, price, account and permission on one backbone. It does not beautify a storefront; it makes dealers, distributors and headquarters see the same record. Shopsoft does not sell this backbone as a package; it builds it around the company’s sales and stock reality.
The Istanbul-based team has built software under SS Danışmanlık since 2004 and carried infrastructure work for 700+ agencies in Turkey and abroad into B2B operations. The aim is not a module list. It is to make “whose price is valid, where stock drops, whose approval the order waits on” the system’s job.
The business problem
Sales stop when order, price and stock live in separate worlds.
B2B sales do not break at the catalogue. A dealer opens an order by phone, headquarters checks price in Excel, the warehouse sees another stock screen, finance closes the account the next day. Three truths appear on the same day. Shipment slips, discount arguments start, the invoice does not match the order.
As this split grows it becomes invisible. A branch prints its own list, a field rep remembers an old discount, the warehouse never sees the reserve. By the time the manager report arrives the event is over. B2B software does not fix this with a prettier portal; it unifies the record.
Shopsoft maps this contradiction first. Who opens the order, who changes the price, which warehouse drops stock, where the credit limit sits? Screens are not drawn until those answers are clear. The software need is born where the operation actually breaks.
Most companies live the split as a “temporary fix”. A rep keeps a private Excel because the system answers late. The warehouse reserves on paper because the screen does not show goods in transit. Finance lines up three files at month end. Those habits are not people failing; they are a missing record. B2B software breaks the habit by unifying the record, not by training users.
Scale does not forgive this. When dealers grow from ten to a hundred the phone chain collapses. A new warehouse reopens the “which stock is visible” argument on every order. Export or a second company writes price and tax into a note field. Without a backbone every growth step births a hidden system.
Many teams treat the problem as “faster ERP users”. Training helps; it does not close a missing record. If a rep enters an order in ten minutes but stock is not locked, the same goods are promised twice. A polished finance screen still leaves month-end war if the invoice is not born from the order line.
The second common miss is buying a separate product per channel. Web, field, warehouse and finance each “will be connected later”. When they connect, three order numbers appear. A backbone does not increase channel count; it requires every channel to open the same record.
Shopsoft approach
No package is imposed; the backbone is built for the company.
Shopsoft does not take B2B software off a product shelf. Dealer-network depth, price-list count, warehouse structure and finance close differ in every company. Selling the same screen to everyone brings the hidden Excel back next year.
The approach has three layers. First, sales reality: who sells to whom, with which permission and term. Second, stock reality: reserve, goods in transit, branch transfer. Third, integration reality: ERP, accounting, cargo and ecommerce, if present, speak the same order language. API integration carries that language; it is part of the backbone, not a bridge.
The Istanbul team does not run discovery as a sales pitch. A real order, an invoice and the story of “why this stuck” come to the table. A regional business-development network that can work in local language reads overseas dealer or distributor scenarios with the same discipline.
The result is not a storefront; it is a living record. When a new dealer is added, permission is copied. When a new discount rule is added, field and headquarters do not invent separate prices. The software stays simple and strict enough to carry a growing network.
“Which screen do you want?” is left last. Events are spoken first: order opened, reserve dropped, approval waited, shipment left, invoice born, return wound back. If those events do not share an identity, more screens still do not make a system.
This is where a package does not fit. A package assumes an average company’s average order. If your list is personal, your warehouses are many and your approval is gated, the package either binds every line to a human or binds nothing. A custom backbone puts the exception inside the rule; it does not leave it on WhatsApp.
Discovery is not closed with three undocumented sentences. “It is complex here” is not enough. An open order, a stuck day, a return or a reconciliation gap come to the table. Those documents show which rule is missing. A theme is not chosen before the rule is written.
Go-live does not have to change the whole network on one day. The first slice closes the order-price-stock trio. Portal polish, mobile comfort and reporting only mean something once that trio holds. The reverse keeps Excel behind a pretty screen.
Core capabilities
The system is built where sales actually break.
These headings are not a module brochure. They are the backbone pieces B2B software must actually solve. Child solutions go deeper on their own pages; the whole is visible here.
Price and permission
List, discount and term already know who may see them. Field and headquarters do not invent separate prices. Rules live in the record, not above the screen.
Stock truth
Warehouse, reserve and goods in transit sit on the same backbone. The quantity the dealer sees does not contradict headquarters. B2B stock management deepens this layer.
Channel and network
Dealer, branch and distributor portal speak the same order language. Each channel may have a different screen; the record stays one.
Account and close
The order is not rewritten into finance. Limit, term and invoice are born from the same event. Risk is not discovered after shipment.
Visibility
Managers do not wait for a report. Dealer, product and region performance are read live. Decisions are taken while the transaction is open.
Operational scenario
A morning order should not become an evening contradiction.
A typical morning: a dealer in Anatolia opens 40 lines on mobile or web. Three lines lack stock; the system offers another warehouse or delivery date. Two lines exceed the dealer limit; the order stays a draft and headquarters sees the risk. Price comes from that dealer’s list; “I remember the old discount” never enters the record.
In the afternoon the warehouse reads the shipment plan from the same record. Reserve drops, the delivery note binds to the order line. In the evening finance invoices the shipped lines. The dealer portal shows the state: approved, shipped, invoiced. The phone chain does not ask “did it go to cargo?”
This scenario is not an ecommerce storefront or a procurement tender. It is the daily work of B2B software. As child processes grow, dealer order portal or the stock layer is discussed on its own page; the backbone stays the same.
In discovery Shopsoft replays this morning with your data. Which step lives in Excel, which on the phone, which on “I know”? The software draws together which of those steps will enter the record.
The second half of the same day can birth a return or a short delivery. Without a record the return becomes a new document; stock and account no longer match. With a backbone the reverse movement binds to the original line.
On a season or campaign day orders swell. The backbone lives with reserve and queue, not by freezing stock blindly. A rep cannot write a panic discount; the threshold stays in draft. Growth does not birth a new Excel; it adds a rule.
The same backbone makes a new dealer opening a copyable permission. A new warehouse multiplies the stock slice, not the order identity. A new discount rule is versioned; the field does not “remember” an old list.
How it is built
We listen to the operation first, then draw the backbone.
Discovery is not a sales pitch. B2B software does not start until today’s order, stock and permission reality is clear.
Request a meeting-
We read sales and stock reality
We look on site at how dealers, warehouses, price and finance run today. The bottleneck is spoken before the software need.
-
We design permission and price architecture
Who sees what, which list is valid and where stock drops are designed first. The screen is the result of that decision.
-
We build the order backbone
The approved architecture goes live. ERP, cargo and related channels bind to the same order language. Parallel Excel closes.
-
We evolve the system as the network grows
As a new dealer, channel or discount rule is added, the backbone grows with you. It is not rewritten; a rule is added.
Integrations
Channels are not bridged; they are made to speak one language.
B2B software does not live as an island. If stock sits in ERP, account in accounting, barcode in cargo and a note in CRM, each produces a separate truth. Shopsoft does not aim to throw the existing system away. Order management and stock management bind the B2B record to the same event.
Integration is not the question “do you have an API?”. It is the decision of where stock drops when an order opens, which document births the invoice, which record a return winds back. API integration carries those decisions. Webhook, file or queue is chosen by need; the same stack is not promised on every project.
CRM software does not replace the B2B backbone. Meetings, opportunities and service notes may live in CRM; price and stock live in the B2B record. The two systems talk; they do not produce two truths. Business process automation binds repeating approval and document steps to this backbone; it is not a storefront chatbot.
Which ERP, cargo and payment line will bind is settled in discovery. A fixed technology list is not published. Architecture stays flexible enough to keep your existing investment and strict enough not to break the record.
Integration success is not “it connected”. When an order opens the other system must accept the same identity, stay in draft on error, and not birth a duplicate on retry. Blind copy produces a second truth.
If e-document, delivery note and cargo barcode do not sit on the line, the field still closes by phone. Those pieces deepen on their own pages; the rule here is: B2B software does not ignore them, it binds them to the order language.
Business outcomes
Benefit is closed work, not a slogan.
The comparison below contains no invented KPI. It places repeating field breaks next to the work that closes once a backbone exists.
| Broken work | Without a backbone | With B2B software |
|---|---|---|
| Opening an order | Phone, WhatsApp, Excel row | One record gated by permission and stock |
| Price argument | The field remembers an old list | The valid list lives in the record |
| Stock contradiction | Dealer sees one quantity, warehouse another | Reserve and actual stock on one backbone |
| Account risk | Appears after shipment | Limit cuts at order time |
| Invoice | The order is rewritten | Born from the shipped line |
| Management | A weekly report is awaited | Dealer and product are read live |
Technical approach
No stack promise; record discipline.
The technical approach does not force a framework or database on every project. Cloud, hybrid or existing server follows the company’s security and operations choice. Shopsoft discusses this in discovery; it does not lock it as a marketing sentence.
The non-negotiable is the record. An order line has an identity. A price rule is versioned. A stock movement binds to the order. Permission is data filtering, not hiding a menu. The log answers who changed what. Without this discipline a polished interface becomes a second Excel.
Scale is event volume before user count: concurrent orders, price calculation, stock lock. Architecture keeps those locks in the right place. Multi-company or multilingual need expands the backbone; every scenario is not inflated on day one.
Build is sliced from the approved architecture. The first slice is usually the order + price + stock trio. Portal polish, report beauty and mobile comfort only mean something if that trio holds.
The data model is locked before the screen. Order header, line, price rule, stock movement and permission slice are separate concepts. Melting them into one “form record” is fast in the short term and fragile later.
Tests play contradiction, not the happy path: the same SKU on two orders, limit breach, partial shipment, price change, return. If those scenarios fail, the storefront that goes live is a second Excel.
A live backbone does not close with “the module is done”. A new dealer type, warehouse, discount and channel stress the same identity. Shopsoft designs that stress as adding a rule, not a rewrite.
The report layer sits on the backbone; it does not replace it. A manager dashboard does not repair a drifted record. First the order line, price version and stock movement are born correctly; then the slice is read.
Security, scale, governance
Trust is permission and an audit trail, not a slogan.
In B2B software security is permission first. A dealer does not see a rival dealer’s price. A rep cannot open every discount. Finance does not force shipment without looking at stock shortfall. A role is a data boundary, not a job-title label.
Governance says whose approval a change waits on. Price-list updates, new dealer openings and limit increases are not done at random. They leave a trail. Customer and account data under KVKK are bound to access and retention discipline, without inventing official document numbers.
Scale is not a Black Friday promise. Orders swell in season, campaign or a new region. The system lives by queuing the record, not by freezing stock. Backup, WAF or pentest is not promised with the same sentence on every project.
Shopsoft works from Istanbul. On global networks a local communication layer makes language and time-zone part of the operation. Secret system detail and case studies are not published; customer logos may stand as a trust signal.
A permission change leaves a trail. “I opened it just once” does not stay unrecorded. Price-list version explains who saw what and when. The trail exists to end the month-end argument, not as a punishment scare.
Personal data and account data are part of the order. Purpose, duration and access are spoken in discovery. Official document numbers are not written as fact before they are confirmed. Backup and disaster scenarios are designed by project need.
Decision criteria
When choosing B2B software, look at the record, not the screen.
Packages are not compared. The questions below show whether the backbone sits on your work.
One order truth
Does the same order carry three identities in phone, portal and ERP? If it does, the software is not yet a backbone.
Owner of price
Who changes the valid list, and can the field override it? If it can, a person is deciding, not the system.
Stock lock
Does an opened order reserve stock, or does the warehouse learn it at the evening count?
Growth
When a new dealer or warehouse is added, does a rule multiply or is the software rewritten?
Common mistakes
Opening a portal is not building B2B software.
The first common mistake is treating B2B as a storefront. Catalogue and cart sit there; price stays in Excel. The dealer opens an order, headquarters rewrites it. The second is solving every need on the same page. Ecommerce storefront, dealer management and procurement are separate intents; this page does not take them as its primary target.
The third is throwing ERP away and reinventing everything in new software. Stock and accounting already exist in most companies. B2B software does not ignore them; it binds them to the order language. The fourth is treating permission as hiding a menu. A hidden menu is bypassed by API or report. Permission lives in the data.
The fifth is closing discovery after go-live. The network grows, discounts change, a new warehouse opens. If the backbone does not evolve, Excel returns. When Shopsoft says ongoing support it does not sell a package; it means the record grows without breaking.
The sixth is putting a report in place of the backbone. A pretty dashboard does not repair a drifted record. The seventh is solving every exception in code. If the exception is not taken into a rule table, the software swells every month. The eighth is accepting field and headquarters as separate truths and saying “integration later”. When later arrives, dual identity becomes permanent.
Scope of this page
The backbone is explained; child intents are not stolen.
This page explains the backbone of B2B software. Dealer order portal, stock layer, ecommerce storefront, field scorecard and procurement chain are separate search intents. Links are visible here; they are not deepened as the primary target. The reader moves to the related page for the bottleneck they are in.
If there is no backbone, a child page also inflates. Portal, stock or channel produces a second truth unless the order identity is one. That is why discovery often starts on this page. The first slice closes the order, price and stock trio. Remaining surfaces bind to that trio.
Shopsoft does not publish a package name, price or demo CTA. The decision is whether the record sits on your sales and stock reality. Discovery is free. Documents come before slides. The software builds the backbone around the company; it does not assume an average company’s average order.
The published Turkish text is the source of this entity. EN and AR siblings stay noindex until translation is complete. Internal links also go to pages not yet written; those pages open as placeholders so the chain does not break.
This backbone is for companies with a dealer, distributor or corporate sales network whose orders still close on the phone or in Excel. A small operation with one storefront, one warehouse and one price list often does not need this depth. If the need is catalogue beauty rather than a unified record, this page is the wrong door.
In discovery Shopsoft asks the depth of your network, the number of lists and where stock sits. Software is not sold before the answer is clear. No package is imposed. The decision is whether the order-price-stock trio will see the same truth. Requesting a meeting is not a binding offer.
Internal links distribute this backbone; they do not copy it. Distributor portal is the region layer. Dealer order portal is the buyer’s order face. B2B stock management deepens reserve versus actual. API integration carries the same order language. None of them steal this page’s primary entity.
A reader should leave this text with three things. B2B software is not a storefront. A package leaves your exception on WhatsApp. Shopsoft draws the backbone from your documents; it does not publish a package name or price. Discovery starts with a reply inside one business day. The first slice is order, price and stock. Portal polish comes later.
The last decision criterion is simple. If the same order carries three identities, there is no backbone. If a person can override the valid price, there is no system. If an opened order does not lock stock, the warehouse is lying. If adding a new dealer rewrites the software, there is no growth. If you cannot say no to those four questions, the meeting should start with documents, not slides.
The team that has built software in Istanbul since 2004 carries 700+ agency infrastructure experience into this backbone. An ISO number is not written before it is confirmed. Customer logos may stand; secret architecture is not published. There is no competitor name. The CTA is Request a meeting. There is no demo, price or package picker. Typical reply is inside one business day during working hours.
The software need often arrives as “we want a portal”. That sentence may not be the right door. The real need is that the order is born with an identity, price is versioned and stock speaks through reserve. A portal can be the surface of those three. If the surface is built first, headquarters keeps rewriting. Shopsoft does not reverse that order.
A discovery meeting is not a slide tour. One order, one invoice, one stuck day is enough. Those three documents draw the backbone. A theme is not chosen before it is drawn. Shopsoft does not impose a package; it builds the record around the company’s sales and stock reality.
Trust and references
A claim is not inflated with an undocumented number.
Shopsoft has built software under SS Danışmanlık since 2004. Infrastructure and software support has been given to 700+ agencies in Turkey and abroad. The centre is in Ataşehir, Istanbul. On international work a regional network that can communicate in the local language is engaged.
An ISO number or official compliance scope is not written as fact before the document is confirmed. There is no invented performance percentage, customer-count claim or competitor comparison. Customer logos may be used as a trust signal; secret architecture and case detail are not published.
Discovery is free and there is no binding offer. Typical reply is inside one business day during working hours. There is no price list or package CTA. Architecture is discussed once the need is clear.
What is asked in the meeting is concrete: one real order, one invoice, one stuck day. Those documents draw the backbone instead of a slide deck. Shopsoft does not name competitors or print invented KPI. The decision is whether the record sits on your work.
FAQ / AI answer blocks
Clear answers about B2B software.
Answers stay short. Scope is settled in discovery around your operation.
What is B2B software?
The enterprise system that unifies company-to-company order, stock, price, account and permission on one backbone. Shopsoft does not sell this as a package; it builds it around the operation.
Is B2B software the same as ecommerce?
No. Ecommerce is storefront and consumer order. B2B software centres dealer, price list, limit and stock permission. The two can be connected; their intents are separate.
Do you sell a ready B2B package?
No. Architecture starts where a package does not fit. Not a module list; your order, stock and permission reality is the source.
Does it work with the existing ERP?
Yes. The aim is not to throw ERP away; it is to bind order and stock truth to one language. Which line binds how is settled in discovery.
Why are dealer, distributor and order pages separate?
Search intent is separate. This page explains the backbone of B2B software. Child solutions deepen in their own entity; they do not steal each other’s primary target.
Is the discovery meeting paid?
It is free and there is no binding offer. Typical reply is inside one business day during working hours.
Does B2B software replace stock software?
No. Actual stock and warehouse movement already exist in most companies. B2B software sets how the order locks that truth; it does not take a stock product as its primary target.
How long until go-live?
Duration depends on how scattered today’s order-price-stock trio is. There is no package calendar. First slice and dependencies are settled in discovery.
Can it cover a multi-company or overseas network?
It can. Language, company and tax are not written onto the backbone as a later note. If the need exists it is thought in context from the start; every country is not inflated on day one.
