ABSTRACT:
A method of submitting orders for products includes a customer preparing an order for submission to a supplier server. When the order is submitted to the supplier server, the supplier server determines whether the customer submitting the order is authorized to submit the order to the supplier. If not, the supplier server forwards the order to another customer who is authorized to submit the order. After forwarding the order, the order may be consolidated with other orders for resubmission to the supplier server.
