E-commerce shopping cart-checkout process
Is possible to have two different "checkout process" on the same site ?

Our customer wants e two different processes depending on the type of products that you can buy.

In the case of "membership" products you should not see the shopoing cart and goes straight to the payment,while for other types of products you should see all step.

Thanks
Federica

Hi,

This is not easily possible out of the box, but you can achieve it using customizations.

As suggested in another thread in our Forums, you will need to combine the default checkout process with a single step process (that fills in complete information and skips all the steps all the way to the payment step.

Please see our documentation at http://devnet.kentico.com/docs/7_0/ecommerceguide/creating_custom_checkout_process_steps.htm. This example should provide some hints. For detailed and intensive hands-on assistance, you may consider our Consulting services.

Regards,
Zdenek

Yes I agree with Kentico. It is not an easy task. You might have to customize. But even in customization I am not sure whether it will be successful or not.

Hi,

You can create a custom Shopping Cart webpart in which you can specify the Checkout Process, instead of editing it under cmsdesk -> ecomm-> configuration -> Store settings -> Checkout Process.

This way each checkout can consist of different steps.

If you would like to able to seperate between the different order made in teh different check outs, you can add a field to system table COM_Order "OrderType".
When ordering from each checkout just update tat field to save which checkout it was.

I hope this helps :)
