| Business
Requirement |
| AAMR had an online store front to retail books, on mental retardation and intellectual disabilities,
which they wanted to upgrade in order to provide better services and enhanced functionalities such
as order tracking to their customers. Provisions were required to be made to enable AAMR
members to get an additional 15% discount on their purchase. |
| |
| |
| From ASP to the .net Framework - migrating and extending functionalities |
Icreon designed and developed an all new online book store for AAMR. This e-commerce
application was developed using .net framework, in order to increase its robustness and scalability.
Through the online book store customers can search for books, browse through its details and place orders to purchase the same. Functionalities that enable customers to bookmark chosen books, print book details have been built into the application.
AAMR members can avail an additional discount on their purchase. While placing orders, AAMR
members can provide their membership number, this information is passed to an external
application which processes the request and authenticates the member, based on which discounts
are provided to the customers.
Icreon developed an administrator module enabling administrators to manage the storefront. Through the interfaces provided, administrators can perform tasks to manage back-end users and grant them access to specific sections; manage details of publishers, upload details of books and view purchase orders.
Provisions have been made to enable administrators to downloaded, as an Excel spreadsheet, a list of email ids of customers who have subscribed to newsletters.
Administrators can manage content, such as FAQs, appearing on the website. |
