*'''Retail Businesses'''
** Those are businesses that deal with the customers directly - the players. They sell portable and useful items to the players which in return brings money to them. Retail Business owners/managers import stock from the warehouses (Factories).

*'''Warehouses'''
** Warehouses are factories that produce stocks for the retail business. They depend on producing stock and selling them to retail businesses.

== Buying a business ==

*Most of the businesses are sold in auctions to keep it fair for everyone to take part in the challenge. So, in order to buy a business, you will need to wait for any upcoming auctions. Check the [[V:MP Auctions | Auctions Article]] to learn more about this system. As we said, most of the businesses go to auctions, but not all of them. Hence, you may find a business for sale, that is what you can buy directly without any trouble.

== Auto-Selling System ==

*'''Introduction'''
**Some business types have an auto-selling system that works with 1.5% of the average of the business price. The business should be stocked with the minimum amount which differs based on the price of the item you set. Instructions are given in-game when setting up your business.

*'''Items that are auto-sold by the server:'''
*'''Ammunition:''' Ammo only, not guns.
*'''Gas Stations:''' Fuels only.
*'''Restaurants:''' All.

*'''Setting up the auto-selling system'''
** After setting prices for your items, type in '''/pricelist'''. Red texts ''may'' appear if there is a problem in the quantity and/or the price of the item. The script will show you the required quantity and price which can make the auto-selling system work.

== Exporting stock to other business ==

* This command will create a cargo at your business and has to be delivered to its destination.
* Do '''not''' use this command unless you are sure of what you are doing. Once the cargo is created you won't be able to restock it. 
* Type '''/exportstock [item name] [amount] [destination business name]'''
** Example: '''/exportstock pizza 50 WikiBusiness'''

== Warehouses ==

* Warehouses use the same commands of the normal businesses, but not all commands. In warehouses you produce stock, the stock is stored in the warehouse until a retail business book a stock and delivers it to them automatically.
*Manager can only deposit money and produce the stock.
*Standard Employee can only access the garage if the warehouse has any.
*'''/producelist''' - To show you a list of the items that you can produce in the warehouse.
