Hub can generate and send invoices in suppliers name (if not reseller but just facilitator)

What is the need / problem

Mary sometimes doesn’t buy from Fred and sell to Jane, but just support Fred in selling directly to Jane through her hub. So the invoice Jane receive should be directly from Fred, not from Mary, and Mary should be able to invoice Fred for her support separately (marketplace feature).

Who does it impact

Mary, Fred and Jane.

What is the current impact of this problem

Sales facilitators hubs (non resellers) can’t use the OFN as we don’t enable them to easily operate that model.

What is the benefit in focusing on this

Enable a lot of new users to adopt the OFN (this will need to come alongside with split payment for that to happen)

Potential solutions that will solve this problem

We haven’t really brainstormed yet, a bit through split payments discussions
