An Extranet is a closed transactional web site that facilitates
the timely communication between suppliers and customers. What does that mean?
it selectively allows your suppliers or customers to access your network
through filters, which enables them to place purchase orders, submit quotes,
etc. directly to you. This is not a new concept, however, it is the first
non-proprietary tool that supports the evolution of
electronic
commerce.
An extranet is generally access via your public corporate web
site, using a user name and password logon.
