QUESTION POSED ON: 03 November 2005
We currently run R/3 4.6C on Windows with SQL Server. We own the entire mySAP.com suite; however, we have never implemented any of the components outside of core. We want to implement a basic, low-cost B2B sales order processing and status checking process. Should we be concentrating our efforts on the online store or the Internet Sales R/3 Edition? What are the basic differences in functionality?

Some key elements for evaluation of a B2B solution are:
