You can enable the AND operation for multiple
contracts so that shoppers must be entitled to products under all
contracts before they can purchase them. The default value is OR,
where shoppers can purchase products if they are entitled to them
under only one contract.
Before you begin
To change any properties in the contract component configuration
file (wc-component.xml), you must create a customized
version of the file in a new folder. The customized version of the
file must contain only the changed properties.
Procedure
- Open
WebSphere Commerce Developer and switch to the Enterprise Explorer
view.
- Create a custom contract component configuration file
(wc-component.xml), if one does not exist:
- Go to the following directory WCDE_installdir\workspace\WC\xml\config\
- In the config folder, create a
new com.ibm.commerce.contract-ext folder so the
path looks like this:
WCDE_installdir\workspace\WC\xml\config\com.ibm.commerce.contract-ext\
- Create an empty wc-component.xml file
in the com.ibm.commerce.contract-ext folder.
This file is your custom wc-component.xml file.
- Add the basic XML elements that are required for your custom wc-component.xml file:
- Open your empty custom wc-component.xml file
in an XML editor.
- Copy the following code snippet into the file:
<_config:DevelopmentComponentConfiguration
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:_config="http://www.ibm.com/xmlns/prod/commerce/foundation/config"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.ibm.com/xmlns/prod/commerce/foundation/config ../xsd/wc-component.xsd ">
<_config:extendedconfiguration>
<_config:configgrouping name="MultipleContracts">
<_config:property name="operation" value="AND"/>
</_config:configgrouping>
</_config:extendedconfiguration>
</_config:DevelopmentComponentConfiguration>
- Save and close the custom configuration file.
- Test your configuration changes.
- Deploy
the customized file to the production environment.
