Companies

A company is a client, of which there is four types, with slightly different attributes. A client that crosses across multiple types, create different entities. A student always interact with the course within the context of a company. A student is unique within a given company.

  • Corporate
    Corporate types are ones where access tokens are purchased in bulk directly from SafetyServe and the student pays nothing directly. Access tokens are purchased by entering a Sales-Order with all the necessary details for a given library.
  • Retail
    Retail types is where there the student pays for the library by themselves through a checkout system with their credit-card. Retail customers must go through the checkout process. Prices for each library can be changed at this level without effecting any other company. These type of customers, SafetyServe collects the money, via their Stripe.com credit-card processing account. While a user never directly interacts with an access code, behind the scenes, a unique one-time use only access code is created and assigned to the course.
  • NSC Corporate
    This is very similar to the corporate type except, SafetyServe does not collect the money, NSC does. When registering access codes, this is done through 'Purchase Orders'. Every other attribute is the same with the Corporate type.
  • NSC Retail
    Similiar to retail, but NSC takes the money from the consumer directly and then redirects the user over to SafetyServe to complete the transaction.

Creating a new company is done by clicking the [+] button that then pops up a window. The company name and URI Folder can be changed at a later date, but once the type of a company has been choosen it is fixed. The URI folder is the unique, short folder, that appears at the end of all web addresses to make it quick and easy to access a given a company.

Example: URI Folder: nscdemo
Reachable at: nscsafety.com/nscdemo

Users

A user is someone that interacts with the course in the course portal. They access the portal via an access code or by purchasing a library in a retail environment. Users are always associated with a single company and may appear multiple times if they are associated with another company. The loginId is however unique across the universe.

Access Codes

An access code is the main currency that unlocks a library of courses. LMS+ at its heart, is an access code manager, that facilitates the management purchase of access codes. All access codes are available here, with a quick review of each one. Clicking on one will take you to the main access code administration area for the company.

Sales Orders

The 'Sales Order' is the mechanism to which access codes are purchased by Corporate and Retail types. The checkout experience will create a 'Sales Order' automatically as part of the checkout experience - these have limited editable functionality. A new sales order is created by going to the main company Sales Order page. In summary, a 'Sales Order' tracks when money is taken by SafetyServe from either company or user (via the checkout). Royalties are therefore owed to NSC for these.

Purchase Orders

Like Sales Order, these manage the NSC orders. In summary, a 'Purchase Order' tracks when money is taken by NSC from either company or user (via their own checkout). Royalties are therefore owed to SafetyServe for these.
