Runtime Interaction with Your Shopping Cart or Quote

---

By default, a link to the Siebel shopping cart or quote is included on the default UI Output page of your application. You can also add more links to the Siebel shopping cart or quote in your application.

If you are using your application outside of the Siebel framework (in stand-alone mode), refer to Siebel Interactive Selling Suite Transact Server Interface Reference for information on connecting to your shopping cart.

Figure 29 shows an application that includes an Add to Cart button.

To integrate your application with the Siebel shopping cart or quote

Add a button UI control labeled Add to Cart or Add to Quote to the output UI page for the pageset.
Open the UI file and add code to call AddToSSCart from an OnClick event for the new button.
AddToSSCart(optional productDescriptionString)

AddToSSCart adds the current product to an order or quote. If the string parameter is included, it is used as the description for the customizable product to be added. If it is not included, the model and state are examined to build a customizable product description. After the product is added to the order or quote, the browser-based view is replaced by the order or quote view.

For more information, refer to Siebel Interactive Designer API Reference.

NOTE:  To add any items to the cart or quote from applications, the recommendation list or product must exist in the Siebel product master. The product master runs off the Siebel Internal Product business component.
