The Site Repository includes the following item types by default:
touchpointandsiteConfiguration– These item types implement the site properties for individual sites. Thetouchpointitem type implements a core set of properties that are common to all commerce channels, and thesiteConfigurationsubtype adds properties that are specific to Web sites.siteTemplate– This item type represents a site category. AsiteTemplateitem stores the name and description of a site category, and the ID of theitemMappingitem in the View Mapping Repository that contains the view mappings for the site category.siteGroup– This item type represents a site group. AsiteGroupitem stores the name of a site group and references to the sites and shareable types (see below) that make up the group.
The default repository definition includes a number of properties for the touchpoint and siteConfiguration item types. The core (platform) properties include general properties for specifying a site name and description, the site category, URLs for accessing the site, and so on. Other modules add properties through XML combination. For example, Oracle Commerce Core Commerce adds these properties:
defaultListPriceListdefaultSalePriceListdefaultCatalog
Other applications may add other properties or item types.
You can add properties to the touchpoint and siteConfiguration item types that are specific to your environment. For example, Oracle Commerce Reference Store adds a number of Commerce Reference Store-specific properties, such as newProductThresholdDays for specifying the number of days after being added that a product is considered new.
