As the name suggests, “Business Partnership Portal” means that the company carries out its business with its business partners over the internet with a web-based software. What we mean by business partners is mainly all individuals and institutions in the aura of the company, such as white-collar internal users, customers, suppliers.

Traditionally, almost any activity carried out by the company can be moved into the portal if needed. If the works carried out meet one or more of the following conditions, it will be useful to record them electronically:

  • If the work carried out is large in volume
  • If it puts an unnecessary burden on the daily working hours of a certain number of personnel
  • Archiving, backing up, or storing causes complexity
  • If the results of the transaction become very difficult or even impossible to report
  • If the job requires a process
  • If work flows through approval mechanisms
  • Accountability, accountability and/or traceability is getting harder and harder
  • If the business process is desired to be integrated with other systems of the company, such as the ERP system

Platform

Extranet is a web-based software installed on a virtual 24/7 active and working server installed within the company. It is Windows based and uses Microsoft SQL Server in the background.

Although the design is standard, it is prepared by taking into account the corporate identity of the company such as its own logo, colors and even fonts, if any. Web portals are designed to be responsive and run on almost all devices. Thus, all users can connect from almost any device via standard web browsers.

Apart from this, services and external software to be uploaded to the relevant portal can be fed as data from the portal in case of need and demand. Again, reporting to the portal from different systems inside, etc. Data flow can be provided for different purposes or controlled transition can be made from the portal to different internal systems.

Access and Authorization

All users who want to log in to the portal are managed by "Admin". All screens in the portal have an authorization number. Newly added screens get different numbers. In this way, if desired, ROLE-based or USER-based authorization can be made on a screen basis. A user can be assigned to different roles, so for example, a user in both the "Sales" role and the "Financing" role can have the combined privileges of both roles. In addition, only viewing or recording editing can be authorized separately according to the structure of the screen.
