visitor fills in a form and

includes:

3. Depending on settings, the

new user is either immediately registered and can log in to their account

, or if User Approval is enabled, they must wait until

their registration has been reviewed and approved by

an Account Administrator. 

4. If User Approval (Auto Part Registration) is enabled, the

Account Administrator is alerted that a Customer has registered for trade access. The user

is notified that their registration is subject to approval.

5. If the user is approved, they

receive an email

stating their registration is approved and they can

now login.

If Auto Part Registration is enabled, a

'review and approve' step for Admin is added so a new customer user application can be checked. The user exists but they cannot log onto your site yet. In the user's Edit User page, the Disable User Account is toggled ON.

3. If this Customer uses a process of multiple approvers, toggle ON Tiered Approval in B2B Registration. 
   

   Info

   This option allows different approvers (i.e. tiers) instead of just a single approver. This means approval can be directed to the more appropriate person, e.g a rep manager for a particular customer, or a state / territory manager for a particular location. With this setting on, if the registering user does not have a provide a CustomerCode, or if they do and that Customer record does not have a Rep User associated it with it, then it will fall back to the standard Auto Part Registration approver.

If user approval is enabled, the

internal notification recipient receives an email that a B2B user has registered.
