TRUST, is the number ONE issue in online shopping in Indonesia, and there is Challanges for Indonesia to deal with this Business prospect. First is only 40% population in Indonesia who have the Bank Account, 4,5% populatin who have the Credit Card.

E-Commerce Goals :

o    No damage, no one of the Products that having Damaged. Hope the products always in good condition

o    No missing, hope the all products that ordered by costumers can be delivered according with the count of the ordered products

o    Access o tracking and tracing by customers, every costumers want to check out where is their products, how long the time the Products can be Delivered? Etc.

o    FIFO ( First In First Out )

o    Delivery milestone update ;

o    Inventory accuracy ;

o    High productivity ;

o    IT integrated order management system.
