The purpose of this research is to present issues and capture solutions in business-to-business (B2B) transactions by a pattern approach. Using empirical data, we examine the processes involved in the B2B transactions and capture valuable solutions and best practices. The goal is to support the organizations in the B2B environment with an approach to improving their business practices as well as with a set of existing patterns. On the macro level the pattern language for B2B transactions addresses standards and structure in the operation, communication and collaboration of the B2B environment.
