Creating a default contract file

In order to create a default contract, you must define the contract, the contract owner, the contract description, the contract participants, and the terms and conditions of the contracts. Contract information is stored in four tables: CONTRACT, PARTICIPNT, TRADING, and TERMCOND.

About this task

The default contract is associated with a store using the STOREDEF database table. For WebSphere Commerce Enterprise users, contracts other than the default contract are associated with a store using the STORECNTR database table.

You can create a default contract in XML, based on one of two formats: XSD or DTD.
