There is stuff in the archives on this. I am going down this road, what I am doing is designing an ADMIN-lite for the front end (vendor section), that has bare necessity functionality for *any vendor. This allows me to better control the layout of item insert/editing, order views, etc, and not miss out on any great upgrades from the devgroup in ADMIN. You can copy admin pages into pages/admin and they will override the lib/UI/pages/admin/. So you can play with them there. When your dealing with multiple vendors, there is a lot to think about, and even more when these vendors will be maintaining their own stock.
