Siebel eSales Administration Guide > Shopping Cart >

Introduction

The Shopping Cart is used to store items selected by customers. When a Siebel eSales customer selects an item for the first time during a session by clicking Add to Cart, a quote record is created. The CurrentQuoteId user profile attribute is set to the ID of this quote.

A customer can have only one Shopping Cart in a session. If the customer changes the Shopping Cart to another quote, for example in the Edit Quote workflow, CurrentQuoteId is set to the ID of the new quote record.
