This topic describes the prerequisites, background information, limits, and end-to-end procedure for the sample project.
Prerequisites
The public cloud version of the BizWorks service is activated.
Background information
In the retail industry, an increasing number of companies are adopting online and offline omnichannel models. However, data fragmentation and discrepancies across multiple channels present significant business challenges. The Business Mid-end has become a common solution to these problems. An omnichannel Business Mid-end typically consists of several shared capability centers, such as a User Center, Customer Center, Product Hub, Transaction Center, Payment Center, Inventory Center, and Promotion Hub.
The BizWorks team has selected several models and capabilities from the Product Hub and User Center to create this sample project. This project helps you quickly understand how to use BizWorks for model design, application development, capability listing, and operations.
