10. Catalog Display
▪ An Catalog is an online presentation for displaying an entire product
line. It can consist of pictures with captions, features tables, audio
explanations, videos and documents for download like data sheets or
printable brochure.

11. Shopping Cart
▪ In early days form based shopping cart was used wherein the user
had to remember and type certain information.
▪ It is now replaced by electronic shopping cart/basket that keeps
record of the items the customer has selected and allows customers to
view the details of the items selected. The customer can add new items
or remove items. To order an item, a customer simply clicks at that
item option. All details of an item, including its price, product no. and
order identifying information are stored automatically in the cart.

12. Transaction processing
▪ It occurs when a customer clicks at checkout or confirm order
button and is subjected to some payment processing mechanism.
▪ It represents the most complex part of online sale. Calculation of
taxes, shipping costs etc. is important parts of this process. Some
software enables a web server to obtain updated shipping rates by
directly connecting to shipping companies’ web sites.

software and their existing accounting system by using a type of
software called Middleware which is a part of e-commerce software
package.

14. Application integration
▪ A program that performs a specific function such as creating
invoices/bills or processing payment received from customers is called
an application program.
▪ We know that Database Management Software stores information in
a structured way. Experts should properly consider that their e-
commerce software application programs must be compatible and fully
integrated with the Database Management Software.
For example if a company has existing inventory database then the
experts should select that e-commerce application program that
supports such a system.

15. Simplifies marketing
▪ Built-in SEO and easy optimization allow online stores to rank higher
in organic search engines such as Google for increased discovery and
lower customer purchase costs.

16. Manage product
▪ From size, color, quantity to product names and images, ecommerce
software allows an online store manager to get a high-level view or
drill down to the specifics without any technical knowledge required.

17. Customer & order management
▪ Managing an order from start to delivery is vital to the success of any
business. Ecommerce software lets you filter by customer, check order
status, and make changes . Integrations with email platforms provide
another medium for managing customer communications.

▪ Printing shipping labels, calculating sales taxes based on customer
location, and sending notification emails to customers.
