Marlijn Kessels

Research Editor

Biografie

Marlijn Kessels is the research editor at ACBuy Order Notebook, responsible for the checkpoint glossary and for making sure every term we define matches what buyers actually see on screen. She trained as a translator, working in Dutch, English and German, and spent four years localising e-commerce and shipping interfaces before joining the desk in 2022. That background is why she treats 'warehouse received' and 'warehouse stored' as two different claims rather than one. She maintains the source lists, translates non-English interface text into English, and keeps product codes and order identifiers untouched. She also runs the quarterly re-walk of every explainer.

Fachgebiet

Purchasing terminology, interface wording comparison, source verification and glossary maintenance

So prüfe ich

Marlijn captures the agent's own interface wording, compares it against our recorded order screens, and checks how the same stage is labelled by other agents before writing a definition. She keeps a source list for each page, separates what the interface says from what our timestamps showed, and flags any label that changed since the last quarterly re-walk. She never carries non-English prose into an article: she translates it and preserves the identifiers exactly.
