Setting up a customer node

Set up only one customer node for each shop to facilitate customer administration. Add the employees to this customer node who are permitted to request products from this shop.

IMPORTANT:If a shop contains a large number of customers, the calculations in the IT Shop can cause a heavy load on the DBQueue Processor and therefore on the database server, as well.

Ensure that no more than 30,000 employees are members in a customer node. If necessary, set up your own shopping center with several shops and customer nodes.

  1. In the Manager, select the IT Shop | IT Shop | <shop> or the IT Shop | IT Shop | <shopping center> | <shop> category.
