If your organization uses B2B Gateway, you might want to enable access to B2B Partners Portal for your external trading partners. To give your trading partners access to B2B Partners Portal, create a custom role and assign it to partner users.
When you create a custom role for partner users, name the role so that you know it is for B2B Partners Portal users. For example, you might name the role "B2B Partners Portal User."
Optionally, you can give the role a description. Clearly describe the role so that you know it is for users from partner companies. For example, you might describe the role as "Role for users from partner companies to access the B2B Partners Portal service."
When you create a custom role for B2B Partners Portal users, enable the Partners Portal feature privilege for the B2B Partners Portal service. For more information about creating custom roles, see Creating a custom role.
Assign the custom role to users from your partner companies. You only need to create one role for B2B Partners Portal users. Assign the same role to all external B2B Partners Portal users.
