To replace the existing payment widgets in your checkout layout with the Split Payments widget:
Open the Checkout Layout that you are using on your storefront. (The default is Checkout Layout with GiftCard.)
Switch to grid view.
Add the Split Payments widget to the layout.
Remove any other payment widgets from the layout.
For example, by default, the Checkout Layout with GiftCard includes the Payment Details widget and the Gift Card widget. The Split Payments widget replaces both of these.
Enable partial payments
As discussed above, if your storefront is using the Split Payments widget, you need to enable partial payments in the administration interface:
Click the menu icon, and then click Settings.
Click Payment Processing and display the Setup tab.
From the Payment Options drop-down menu, select Allow Partial Payment.
By default, an order can be saved in a partially paid state indefinitely. If you want partially paid orders to expire automatically after a certain amount of time, the Setup tab also provides fields for specifying a price hold period. This is the amount of time an order can remain in the PENDING_PAYMENT state before it is marked for cancellation. Note that this is the same setting used in account-based commerce to determine when to cancel an order that has been approved but not paid for. See Set a price hold period in Using Oracle Commerce Cloud.
Note that these settings are site-specific, so you will need to configure each site individually. Also, you must publish your changes for the configurations to take effect.
