You must view Commerce Reference Store slots using the ATG Control Center (ACC). Slots are not viewable in the Business Control Center (BCC).

To view Commerce Reference Store slots:

Commerce Reference Store slots are configured so that, when a customer views a page that contains a slot, the slot requests content, thereby initiating a scenario. In the ATG Control Center, this behavior is controlled by setting the Event Generation option to When Empty (that is, the slot is empty and requires content). Note that this is not the default configuration for slots. For more details, see Using Slots in the ATG Personalization Programming Guide.

Because slots are intimately tied to scenarios, we refrain from discussing them as individual entities here. For details on a given slot, refer to its related scenario, provided in the table below.
