Commerce Reference Store is an example of a multisite implementation, where multiple sites are run from the same Commerce instance and share certain data and other resources. Commerce Reference Store includes three sites:
ATG Store US primarily sells men’s and women’s apparel. The store is based in the United States, and shares a shopping cart and comparison lists with ATG Home. It can be viewed in English or Spanish.
ATG Store Germany has the same catalog as ATG Store US, but the store is based in Germany and prices are in Euros rather than dollars. ATG Store Germany can be viewed in German or English.
ATG Home primarily sells home furnishings. The store is based in the United States, and shares a shopping cart and comparison lists with ATG Store US. ATG Home can be viewed in English or Spanish.
The ATG Store catalog and the ATG Home catalog are distinct but have some overlap. Both catalogs share the top-level Home Accents category and products.
Note: This guide assumes you have configured your Commerce Reference Store implementation to include the Store.Estore.International module. The International module is necessary for sites that will support multiple languages or multiple countries. If you did not install the International module, your production instance of Commerce Reference Store will include the English versions of ATG Store US and ATG Home only. You will not see ATG Store Germany or the Spanish translations for ATG Store US and ATG Home.
