How to Order Products for Resale

The tutorial describes the process of ordering products for resale through the Marketplace Platform.

In the Marketplace Platform, agreements are the foundation for placing orders and creating subscriptions. Without an agreement, orders cannot be placed.

When ordering products, there are two options for agreements:

• If you have an existing agreement, you can use that agreement. However, you'll need to make sure that the agreement is mapped to a licensee that's been configured for resale. If the agreement doesn't have a resale licensee, the transaction will not be allowed.

• If you don't have an agreement, you can create one during the ordering process and select the licensee you may have already set up as a resale licensee.
