Hi,

I'm working for a small development house. Two of our clients are looking to add an employees-only store to their public websites. Other than the standard shopping cart features, we're looking for something that can accomodate the following:


employees only have view and purchase permissions for a subset of the product catalog
must be able to store sizes for clothing items
flat-rate shipping charge
Canadian GST and provincial sales taxes will be charged
web-based product setup and administration
ideally ASP.NET 2.0
ideally integrated with the ASP.NET 2.0 membership/role provider to take advantage of existing user database
must be either open source, or have a very extensible programming API

One client has a rather special requirement: managers will be able to order business cards for their employees. Ideally, the manager will be able to select their employee from a list, then get a live PDF preview of what that business card will look like. Each manager will have a different employee list to pick from.The other client has an existing merchant account through Beanstream (http://www.beanstream.ca) so we would like to re-use that for accepting credit card payments if possible.Ideally we would like to find an existing shopping cart solution that can accomodate both clients, or at least a base shopping cart that we can customize. Any ideas?


Please help.

I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.

Clint,

Kartris is ASP.NET 4.6 now (though should work on ASP.NET 4.5 fine). ASP.NET 2.0 is pretty old now, so pretty much every server and hosting would support 4.x.

Kartris can handle Canadian taxes (it's one of the modes that can be chosen during installation). This lets you set two levels of taxes, GST and PST, for example.

Items can be assigned to customer groups, and then you can assign customers to those groups. This would let you operate a store where users must login and can then only see categories/products/versions that are either unassigned (available to all users) or available to their specific group. You can also choose to have items available to all users, but with different prices for individual groups too.

Flat rate shipping is easy to configure.

The admin is web based and there are also bulk methods if you initially need to import a lot of product data from spreadsheet.

There is a web API which gives a good way to integrate with some third party systems, or script data in and out without modifying kartris itself:
https://kartris.tome.host/tc/9956

The Kartris membership provider is based around the ASP.NET membership provider, though there are some extra things added and it uses the Kartris db. But it would be possible to import customer logins if required.

Regarding the business cards, that could be done as a custom product control:
https://kartris.tome.host/tc/9999

It would need some work, but PDFsharp is already referenced in Kartris as it is used for shipping labels. We typically use the custom control for creating product configurators, for example configuring PCs (choice of RAM, CPU, HD, casing, etc. with custom interface) or curtains/blinds (enter h and w of window, select fabric, options, the system will calculate the price of the curtain based on spreadsheet lookups of pricing or a formula).

We do custom development of stores based on Kartris, so if you have a spec and would like to get a quote, send it to [email protected] and I can have a look over it and hopefully quote you a fixed price for the work.
