With the Windsor Framework coming into force at the end of the month (30th September), we need to work out what is a B2B order and what isn't when shipping from Great Britain to Northern Ireland
What is the best way to work out that the order is a B2B one?
Cannot use the shipping address based on if company name field is set since I may order something to be delivered to my workplace (a B2C sale)
Is the getOrder REST API the best - seeing if buyer.buyerRegistrationAddress.companyName is set?
Should we use the getUser XML API to look up the buyer - seeing if User.SellerInfo.SellerBusinessType is set to commercial?
Are there any other APIs that are better to work this out; maybe a combination of the above or are there any different APIs that could be used?
Is there a way to also get the buyer's VAT number, EORI, and/or UKIMS number?
