ZapNote: Schemantix
What has hampered explosive growth in marketplaces is that a number of value-added services beyond simple cataloging and order presentment are needed. In effect, the e-marketplace needs to offer the same features as a real-world marketplace, including complete sourcing to payment. The Schemantix Business Service Suite provides a set of interoperable turnkey applications for Billing, Payment, Logistics, Reporting, Factoring, and Request for Quotes (RFQ). These solutions are based on the Schemantix Business Service Platform that provides a customizable and localized solution for e-Marketplace participants and is tightly integrated with Commerce One and SAP marketplace systems.
