Steps involved in creating an online SHOPPING BASKET / CART

I am trying to learn how to create a website for selling products online, and I have no idea where to start with the details of adding a shopping cart to a site etc. All I know (I think) is that SSL Certificates are required for the secure page where payment details are asked for.
So, first of all, could someone please break it down for me in simple terms what I need to know (and do) in order to create this feature on a website. Step 1, Step 2, Step 3..... etc.... I just need to know how it all functions, and then I can ask for more specific help based on each step.
Many many thanks in advance for helpful advice from those who are skilled and knowledgeable about this setup.

First, contact your bank to set-up a merchant account. You'll need one to accept on-line credit cards.
Second, establish accounts with your payment processing gateway providers like Authorize.net, PayPal, Google Checkout, etc...
Third, find a cart that
a) supports your payment gateway(s) and
b) uses a server-side programming language supported by your web server. PHP/MySQL is widely supported by most commercial hosts. If unsure, check with your host.
Time is money. If you crave a full array of shopping cart features and flexibility to customize your cart pages, you'll need to pay. Cartweaver is very reasonable when compared to other shopping carts in its class. You get what you pay for. If your cart requirements are few and you don't have a lot of products to sell, Coffee Cup Shopping Cart Creator might be all you need. Last time I checked it retailed for under $50.
Finally, I highly recommend against collecting or storing sensitive credit card data on your site. If you do, you'll have a hell of time with PCI compliance. See Payment Card Industry - Data Security Standards guidelines:
http://www.pcicomplianceguide.org/pcifaqs.php IMO it's safer all around to pass your customers over to the payment processor's site to complete their CC transaction. If you do it this way, you won't need an SSL.
Good luck,

All the steps involved in creating user attributes

where is it documented on how to create user attributes that are stored in the ldap?
I created a jspprovider channel, and I can get data out of the user attributes in the samplecontent.jsp by:
JSPProvider p = (JSPProvider)pageContext.getAttribute("JSPProvider");
SSOTokenManager mgr = SSOTokenManager.getInstance();
SSOToken token = mgr.createSSOToken(request);
AMStoreConnection dpc = new AMStoreConnection(token);
String name = token.getPrincipal().getName();
AMUser user = dpc.getUser(name);
Map attMap = user.getAttributes();
Collection valueCollection = attMap.values();
Iterator valueIterator = valueCollection.iterator();
int iSize = attMap.size();
Set attKeySet = attMap.keySet();
Iterator keyIterator = attKeySet.iterator();
and then iterate through to display them all.
I then tried to store a value using the sampledoedit.jsp file:
JSPProvider p = (JSPProvider)pageContext.getAttribute("JSPProvider");
SSOTokenManager mgr = SSOTokenManager.getInstance();
SSOToken token = mgr.createSSOToken(request);
AMStoreConnection dpc = new AMStoreConnection(token);
String name = token.getPrincipal().getName();
AMUser user = dpc.getUser(name);
String aname = request.getParameter("attributeName");
Object aval = request.getParameter("attributeValue");
HashMap attMap = new HashMap();
attMap.put(aname,aval);
user.setAttributes(attMap);
user.store(true);
response.sendRedirect((String)pageContext.getAttribute("url"));
For whatever reason, I get an error, and in the debug I just get couldn't set attributes.
Then, when I try to retreive the list of attributes, the new name/value pair is created, but the value is blank.....
Any ideas? Or a link on a step by step process on how to create user attributes?

BTW, here is the error I get in the debug log:

Steps Involved in creating Users thru the API

Hi Mark or anybody from Oracle,
Your solution to build a string for the
XML and then parse it is ok. However I would
like to do it programmatically instead of building strings containing the XML.
What are the steps and exactly what attributes do you need to set for the User
to be created programmatically.
Here is the steps I have and It's giving me
the following exception: IFS-30002 - Unable to create new library object.
The objects needed to create a user are:
1) DirectoryUserDef + set its attributes
2) Folder Definition for User folder then add
to parent folder in this case /home
3) PrimaryProfileUserDefinition + set its attributes DirectoryUser and HomeFolder ?
Can you elaborate on the exact steps to take
and exact attributes to set.
Thanks
null

#1 I would strongly recommend the XML based approach. It's much easier, and if we change the way the user / directory objects are organized in much less likely to require you to alter your code.
Note that in order to create the objects programatically you're going to have to make sure that you have set ACLs and Owners correctly. It really is quite a complex process.
At some later date we 'may' provide a simple Java API for creating users.
In order to understand your error I need to catch the exception and print the stack trace as per the end of my code example for creating a user from an XML string.
Please post the results of the stack trace and someone will attempt to respond to you.

Creating separate online shop layouts for mobile

Is there any way to create separate shop layouts (catalogue.html, small_product.html, large_product.html, etc) for use on a mobile site. I want to limit some of the information posted to the mobile site--e.g., eliminate custom tags used in large product page-- in addition to having the ability to specify different catalogs per row, for example, on the desktop version, I have my catalogs listed 3 across--on the mobile site, I want them listed 2 across. How do I go about specifying these differences in layouts, desktop versus mobile. What is the protocol for something like this?

Hi Anne,
You should be able to o this with custom templates and the {system_visitorDeviceClass} tag. If you want no coding at all, you should be able to do the following: Create templates for mobile in the same folder as the standard ones (root > Layouts > OnlineShop. Rename all of them to something like mobile_small_product / desktop_small_product
Then you can just use any module by referencing the custom template as {module_product,63882,5450055,_top template="/Layouts/OnlineShop/{system_visitorDeviceClass}_small_product.tpl"
Kind Regards,
Alex

Creating Online Shop

After a steep learning curve, and help from the forum, I have
my clients new site up:
www.entwyne.com
Next step is to fill the product pages.... I need to create
an online shop...
The hard part is making it so my client can update, ad new
products and include a Paypal button.
I want to do something simple like this:
http://www.mariecristine.com/?&mp=Default&class=inventory&id=SP71&cid=SP1035
Anybody know of some easy online tutorials?
Or a little program that takes the pain out of it?
I have explored
http://www.plogger.org/ ... and
Photoshops automate web photo gallery.
Not sure they are quite right for the job.

Hello,
The page you showed as an example of what you want to do is
simple in layout
only.
What makes it work is very complex.
It involves Server Side Language and a database. Essentially,
an
application.
There is also a "back end", which is the administration part
of the website
where the client can add new products or photos, edit
descriptions or
prices, delete products, add stock, control shipping charges
and so on.
Take a look at webassist.com (their eCommerce suite) or
Cartweaver.com for a
solution..
Check out Cartweaver's demo of the admin section for an
example of what your
client would need to update and maintain the store.
Click around through the menu.
http://www.cartweaver.com/demos/php/basic/cw3/Admin/
Essentially, all the forms are for the client to add to or
edit things in
the database. Server Side Language defines how this works.
To go back to the public side of the site,
You need the list of products to show so people can click on
one to get a
"details" page with a bigger photo, more information, an add
to cart button
and so on.
Briefly, VERY briefly, this is one way things happen:
There is a menu list of products for sale on the home page of
the site.
This list comes from the database. It's in the database as
the client used
the admin section of the site to define what products he or
she has.
A Server Side Language (SSL) takes the information from the
database, and
"draws" the menu on the page.
So, one of the products is rings.
You click on "rings", in the menu and a "product page"
displays.
Again, the information on the products page comes from the
database.
Your client used the admin section of the site to enter all
of the ring
types into the database and to add photos.
Now, when this page opens, the fact that you picked rings
defines how this
page is built dynamically.
(There is not a separate page for all products..that would be
insanely
manual if there were a lot of products.)
The SSL pulls all the ring names and short descriptions out
of the database,
and builds a table on the page big enough to hold
the number of rings. It inserts the link to each ring's image
into each
cell, so the image will display on the page.
It then adds a link to each cell, so the user can click on
that and get more
details about the ring.
Now, you click on a certain ring.
A "details" page opens.
Information about this specific ring is gathered from the
database and drawn
onto the details page.
A bigger picture, a long description, an add to cart
button.....
Again, there is not a different page for each product. There
is 1 details
page, and the SSL creates the page dynamically (on the fly)
based on which
product someone wanted more info on.
Lastly, you want this ring.
You click on the "Add to Cart" button.
A cart view opens showing what is in the cart.
This, too, is built by the SSL using the database.
You can proceed to checkout, or continue shopping and add
more things to the
cart.
It is complex.
Luckily, applications like Cartweaver and Webassist can do
most of the work
for you.
They build the admin section and all the dynamic pages.
You just "style" things to match your site.
You will need to get familiar with setting up a testing
server on your
computer, as you can't test SSL pages locally without one.
I know Cartweaver comes with great instructions on how to do
this.
I would assume WebAssist does as well, I've heard their
support is great.
Time to start reading!
Take care,
Tim

Customized products online shop with business catalyst

Hello,
I'd like to create an online shop with business catalyst ni which my clients would be able to customized my products with text and photos.
Do you know any way of doing that? Of course, i'm looking for something not too expensive and working well.
Some more details: on my products, i would need a fixed template with some info that should not be removable by clients (such as the weight), and i need to be able to pré-define areas on my products where customers can add text and others where they can upload a picture, resize it, zoom in and out, etc.
Do you know any way to solve my problem?
Thank you in advance
Sylvain

Can i just check with you that this is correct?
Thanks

Duplicate cookie being formed for shopping basket

Good Afternoon,
Firefox version: 27.0.1
OS: Windows 7
I was hoping I could get some information and possibly some help on rectifying this issue with duplicate cookes on firefox that I've been having.
I discovered that I was having two identical cookies being created for my shopping basket on the site which meant that, while I was adding products to my basket, it would not show up on the basket page as the cookie information being retrieved was stored on the duplicate cookie instead. Analysing the data on the cookies was not possible either as it all appears garbled. There is an apache server that redirects users from site.co.uk to www.site.co.uk and does not create cookies in that instance so this should not be a problem.
Is there a fix I can apply for this? Is this a firefox issue perhaps?

Do these cookies have a different path?
Are that domain cookies (i.e. start with a dot)?
You can inspect and manage the cookies for the domain in the currently selected tab:
*Click the "Site Identity Button" (globe/padlock) on the location bar
*Click "More Information" to open "Tools > Page Info" with the Security tab selected
*Click "View Cookies" to view the cookies for the domain in the currently selected tab

Creating an online shooping site

I've been using Dreamweaver for a few years now to develop
html/css sites, and have just been asked to create an online
shopping site for a small company. I note that many magazines
recommend Actinic as a complete solution, but I would be interested
to know if there is an easy way to develop the site and its various
elements in Dreamweaver?
My understanding is that Actinic (and, I presume, other
shopping site development apps) handles the creation and deployment
of much of the server-side technology, and as I want to get this
right first time, I would be interested to hear the group's

Depends also on what you mean by “small company”.
I have developed several small company sites just using
Paypal
No matter what application you use, even your own, you will
need a credit card processing company to handle your transactions
and you DO NOT want to tackle that alone.
If the company has fewer than say 50 products, Paypal works
great. I takes some maintenance on someone’s part for price
changes etc. but is robust enough for most things and is free to
use (except for pretty small transaction fees)
If you have many more products than that, or a lot of options
(sizes, colors, etc.) you’ll need a commercial product.
I’ve never used Actinic so I can’t vouch for it
specifically. I’ve developed a site with over 19,000 parts in
several categories using Comersus and I’m in the process of
doing one with NetPoint. Yes, they pretty much have all of the
active parts worked out and you are lots of money ahead to buy a
good product rather than try and do it yourself.
The benefits to most products like these is the ability to
drive them with databases. When an inventory item is changed in the
company database, Comersus and Netpoint will modify the web page in
real time. So if there are 5 items in stock and somebody buys one,
the next shopper sees 4 items in stock. Or if you change a price or
description, the web page changes immediately. With thousands of
items this is a mandatory feature.

Does dreamweaver have drag & drop templates for creating online shopping websites?

Does dreamweaver have drag & drop templates for creating online shopping websites?

How many products are you planning to sell?
Do you need a lot of varying versions like colors, sizes etc. ?
Paypal offers a very simple payment gateway, without your needing to get involved with learning server side Scripting and and databases. Their tech support is superb.

Online catalogue with shopping basket functionality

We have an online shop in our company with shopping basket functionality that's running on a burning platform. They're asking if we can build a similar catalogue in newScale.
The way the online shop works right now is similar to many online shops: The customer searches for the good(s) -> selects the good(s) -> indicates quantity -> adds to 'shopping basket' -> submits order. The order is then sent to the backend system, which in this case is SAP.
Is newScale capable of this kind of catalogue? If yes, how and what's needed.
Thanks.

Hi Christine,
The short answer to your question is "yes".
If you are asking whether there is an ability to have RequestCenter function as the front-end for other systems, such as SAP, the anwser to this is "yes". This is typically done via task-level integration using ServiceLink. Depending upon your version of SAP, you might also be able to do this using a Web Services integration.
If you are asking whether there is an ability to have RequestCenter users of RequestCenter add more than one item to a Requisition, the anwser to this is also "yes".
If you can give us a bit more information about what you want to do, we can steer you in the best direction.

Hi,
Which SRM version are you working on??
Have a look at these notes:
Note 1127341 - Added Approver/Reviewer disappear on screen refresh
Note 1175341 - document creator cannot add adhoc approver in shop-for case
Note 423112 - Determining the processor assignment in an insertable step
Note 414928 - 'Add approver' works wrong when second approver not found
Note 382393 - Add approver/reviewer in Approval Preview

Addition of new field in the "Create limit item" shopping cart

Hello Gurus,
I have a request in my project to add the company code field to the basic data for the "create limit item" shopping cart.
Thanks

Hi Kedar
Here are the steps....
1. Create a Custom field in SRM and append it to SC table structures in SRM
2. Add this field to the Custom field config for meta data at Item level in IMG>SRM Server> Cross application basic settings> Extensionsand and field control> Configure field control --> Configure control of fields at item level
3. THen find the respective web dynpro application and component for the shopping cart portal UI screen where you want the field to appear. You can do this by right click on the screen area and then select More Field Help
4. Go to SE 80 and enhance the respective webdynpro view by adding the custom field to the Context of the VIew and then adding it to the layout of the view at respective location. After doing this create a binding between the layout field and the context.....
