Review the business description below and identify the core components of the requirements.

Business Area: Catalog Sales

We receive orders for products from customers via phone calls or mail. We access our online systems to check inventory, prices, and estimated shipping dates. If the order total is over $100,000 we turn it over to a supervisor. We contact the CC Authorization Company to check the customers credit card account. If the credit card charge is authorized we enter the order into the system. We would like our website to accept orders and link to online inventory.

We envision using our existing customer number and allowing each customer to create a password to ensure security. Anyone could look at the products online, but only registered customers would be allowed to place orders. The website should have search ability by several options: product item number (from the catalog), product type, color, and size. Hopefully, when a customer places an order the software would quickly calculate a shipping charge and present the order total to the customer. We would not allow orders totaling more than $1000 to be placed on the web. The software should also email a confirmation to the customer if requested.
