Affiliate usage needs maturing. #42

As per http://community.smartstore.com/index.php?/topic/46089-actually-managing-affiliate-sales/ ..

It is beyond essential, critical, to make the affiliates more usable. Unless i am missing the mark, i have to open each and every affiliate, trying to track who might be responsible for an order. This is just very wrong. Each order must have an optional affiliate attribute so i can see immediately if a sale is affiliate-driven.

Without this, i will have to hire somebody full-time to track this. I don't want to do that. Either that or use a separate system just to track affiliates, and then i am disconnected from Orders, and then i might as well find another eStore.

sigh.. i hope i am just missing something!

edit: in the first two days of opening the affiliate doors, i have 10 signed up. I could easily reach hundreds. Once sales starts, this eStore might quickly need replacing if i cannot find a reasonable manner to manage affiliates. That would be a shame, as i LOVE the UI for the most part.

There is a link to the affiliate on the order edit page if the order is assigned to an affiliate.
